Most of Nottinghamshire has 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. For a stone or cast-iron bath in a Nottingham property, we check the floor structure before anything is ordered.
What the job includes
- A full product schedule naming every piece of sanitaryware, brassware, tile and light fitting
- 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
- Layout drawings, wall elevations and a tile setting-out plan
- Large-format porcelain, natural stone or microcement over full tanking
- Bespoke fitted furniture, mitred tile edges and recessed niches
Decisions to make first
Heating
Underfloor heating under stone or porcelain makes the room comfortable all year; pair it with a towel rail for drying.
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.
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.
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
Internal bathroom work does not need planning permission, but a listed building needs listed building consent for alterations affecting its character, including new soil or vent pipes through walls. Heavy baths and stone floors add load to the floor structure, which should be checked first. Electrics must meet BS 7671, including the IP ratings in each zone and 30 mA RCD protection on every circuit.
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.
