Working in Gillingham

We work right across Gillingham — ME7 and ME8 — and in neighbouring Chatham and Rochester.

Across a large town like Gillingham, homes range from older terraces to newer estates; the survey tells us which pipework and floor we are dealing with. For a period house in Gillingham with high ceilings, we plan the lighting and tile heights to suit the proportions of the room. If your Gillingham home has hard water, we talk through brassware and stone finishes that will still look good after a year of daily use.

Most of Kent has very hard water. 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

Bespoke fitted furniture, mitred tile edges and recessed niches
A full snag check, sealing of stone where needed, and a handover of manuals and isolation points
Concealed thermostatic or digital shower valves, set into the wall to the depth the manufacturer specifies
Floor strengthening where a stone-resin, cast-iron or natural stone bath needs it

Decisions to make first

Brassware finish

Chrome is the easiest to keep clean. Brushed brass, nickel and matt black look striking but show limescale marks unless they are wiped down.

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 home survey in Gillingham really free?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

Do you cover ME7 and ME8 in Gillingham?

Yes. We cover all of Gillingham, including ME7 and ME8, and nearby Chatham, Rochester and Strood. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

What makes a bathroom feel luxurious?

Space around the fittings, warmth underfoot, good light and fewer visible fixings make a bathroom feel luxurious. Concealed valves and cisterns, large tiles with tight grout lines, frameless glass and lighting on dimmers matter more than any single expensive piece.
