Working in Currie

We cover every part of Currie, including EH11, EH13 and EH14, and nearby Balerno (1.5 miles) and Colinton (2.2 miles).

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Currie: free survey, written quote, one team. We plan luxury bathrooms in Currie with drawings and a full product schedule, and the price is fixed in writing once the design is agreed. For a period house in Currie with high ceilings, we plan the lighting and tile heights to suit the proportions of the room.

Supplies across most of Edinburgh are soft. That leaves you free to choose matt black, brushed brass or clear glass without worrying much about limescale. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Underfloor heating, layered lighting and any steam unit wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
Concealed thermostatic or digital shower valves, set into the wall to the depth the manufacturer specifies
Layout drawings, wall elevations and a tile setting-out plan
Floor strengthening where a stone-resin, cast-iron or natural stone bath needs it

Decisions to make first

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.

Lighting

Layer it: IP-rated ceiling lights for general use, a lit mirror at the basin and low-level LED in niches or plinths for night, each on its own switch or dimmer.

Rules that apply in Scotland

In Scotland, structural work such as strengthening a floor, or altering the drainage, may need a building warrant. An unvented cylinder should be fitted by an installer qualified for unvented systems, and the electrics tested and certified to BS 7671.

More about luxury bathrooms

Luxury bathrooms in Currie: questions

What is the price of a luxury bathroom in Currie?

A luxury bathroom in Currie usually costs £11,500–£24,000 including VAT. Expect the lower end for a like-for-like job with standard products, and the upper end if things move or you choose premium finishes. Your quote is itemised and fixed in writing once agreed.

Is the water hard in Currie?

Will a luxury bathroom in Currie need a building warrant?

Usually not for a straight refit. Building warrants are issued by the local council's building standards service, and forming a new bathroom, changing drainage or structural work can need one. We tell you at the survey and handle the application if one is needed.

How long does a luxury bathroom take?

Allow 10–15 working days on site for most jobs, plus the lead time for products after you approve the quote. We give you a day-by-day plan before work starts in Currie.

Do I need an unvented cylinder for a rainfall shower?

Not always, but a large rainfall head needs strong flow and plenty of hot water. A combi boiler may struggle to feed one, and a tank-fed system would need a pump. An unvented cylinder gives mains pressure from a stored supply and suits larger showers; it must be installed by a G3-qualified installer. We test your pressure and flow at the survey.
