Working in Stretford

As well as Stretford itself (M17, M32 and M41), we survey in Old Trafford, Urmston and Sale.

Homes in and around Stretford vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. We plan luxury bathrooms in Stretford with drawings and a full product schedule, and the price is fixed in writing once the design is agreed. For a stone or cast-iron bath in a Stretford property, we check the floor structure before anything is ordered.

Most of Greater Manchester is supplied with soft water. 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

Bespoke fitted furniture, mitred tile edges and recessed niches
Concealed thermostatic or digital shower valves, set into the wall to the depth the manufacturer specifies
A full product schedule naming every piece of sanitaryware, brassware, tile and light fitting
Large-format porcelain, natural stone or microcement over full tanking

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.

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 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 Stretford?

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.
