Working in Rochdale
As well as Rochdale itself (OL11, OL12, OL15 and 1 more postcode districts), we survey in Heywood, Royton and Middleton.
Rochdale 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 you live in a listed building in Rochdale, we flag any change that may need listed building consent, such as a new soil pipe through a wall. If your Rochdale home has hard water, we talk through brassware and stone finishes that will still look good after a year of daily use.
Supplies across most of Greater Manchester 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
- 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
- Layout drawings, wall elevations and a tile setting-out plan
Decisions to make first
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.
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.
