Working in Hove

As well as Hove itself (BN1, BN3 and BN41), we survey in Brighton, Portslade and Shoreham-by-Sea.

Across a large town like Hove, homes range from older terraces to newer estates; the survey tells us which pipework and floor we are dealing with. For a stone or cast-iron bath in a Hove property, we check the floor structure before anything is ordered. For a period house in Hove with high ceilings, we plan the lighting and tile heights to suit the proportions of the room.

Most of East Sussex has hard water. We plan easy-clean glass, rimless toilets and finishes that do not show limescale. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Bespoke fitted furniture, mitred tile edges and recessed niches
Floor strengthening where a stone-resin, cast-iron or natural stone bath needs it
A detailed survey of the floor structure, hot-water capacity, water pressure and flow
A full product schedule naming every piece of sanitaryware, brassware, tile and light fitting

Decisions to make first

Heating

Underfloor heating under stone or porcelain makes the room comfortable all year; pair it with a towel rail for drying.

Shower system

A concealed thermostatic valve with a ceiling head and handset is the usual choice. A digital valve sets the temperature from a wall panel, and a steam enclosure needs its own generator and supply.

Rules that apply in England

In England, the new circuits a luxury bathroom often needs, for underfloor heating, a steam unit or a digital shower, are notifiable under Part P. An unvented hot-water cylinder, often fitted to feed a large shower, must be installed by a G3-qualified installer, and any work on the boiler must be done by a Gas Safe registered engineer.

Is the water hard in Hove?

What does a steam shower need?

A steam shower is a fully sealed enclosure or room with a generator that fills it with steam. It needs its own electrical circuit, a sealed door, usually a sloped ceiling so condensation runs off rather than dripping, full tanking and a drain. It has to be planned into the room from the start, not added later.
