Working in Blackheath

We work right across Blackheath — SE3, SE10 and SE13 — and in neighbouring Greenwich and Catford.

London homes in Blackheath often mean stairs, permits and neighbours below; we plan the logistics as carefully as the bathroom. If your Blackheath 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 Blackheath with high ceilings, we plan the lighting and tile heights to suit the proportions of the room.

Supplies across most of Greater London 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 full product schedule naming every piece of sanitaryware, brassware, tile and light fitting
Floor strengthening where a stone-resin, cast-iron or natural stone bath needs it
Layout drawings, wall elevations and a tile setting-out plan
Underfloor heating, layered lighting and any steam unit wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified

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.

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.

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 Blackheath?

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.
