Working in Basildon
We cover every part of Basildon, including SS13, SS14, SS15 and 1 more postcode districts, and nearby Pitsea (2.2 miles) and Stanford-le-Hope (3.3 miles).
Basildon has a wide mix of house ages, so the survey is where we spot old lead pipework, weak joists or a tight soil stack. If your Basildon home has a larger main bathroom, a freestanding bath with a separate walk-in shower is usually where the design starts. For a period house in Basildon with high ceilings, we plan the lighting and tile heights to suit the proportions of the room.
Water across much of Essex is very hard. 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
- Large-format porcelain, natural stone or microcement over full tanking
- Underfloor heating, layered lighting and any steam unit wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
- Layout drawings, wall elevations and a tile setting-out plan
- Concealed thermostatic or digital shower valves, set into the wall to the depth the manufacturer specifies
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.
