Working in Pitsea
In Pitsea we cover SS13, SS14 and SS16; we also cover Basildon, 2.2 miles away, and South Benfleet.
In Pitsea, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If your Pitsea home has a larger main bathroom, a freestanding bath with a separate walk-in shower is usually where the design starts. For a stone or cast-iron bath in a Pitsea property, we check the floor structure before anything is ordered.
Supplies across most of Essex are 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
- A detailed survey of the floor structure, hot-water capacity, water pressure and flow
- Underfloor heating, layered lighting and any steam unit wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
- Bespoke fitted furniture, mitred tile edges and recessed niches
- Large-format porcelain, natural stone or microcement over full tanking
Decisions to make first
Wall and floor finish
Large-format porcelain gives a stone look with little upkeep. Natural stone and microcement are beautiful but need sealing and care, especially in hard-water areas.
Freestanding bath material
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch. Stone resin holds heat and feels solid but is much heavier. Cast iron is the heaviest of all and nearly always needs a structural check.
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.
