Working in Bury St Edmunds
We work right across Bury St Edmunds — IP32 and IP33 — and in neighbouring Thetford and Stowmarket.
In Bury St Edmunds, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If your Bury St Edmunds 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 Bury St Edmunds with high ceilings, we plan the lighting and tile heights to suit the proportions of the room.
Most of Suffolk 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 detailed survey of the floor structure, hot-water capacity, water pressure and flow
- A full product schedule naming every piece of sanitaryware, brassware, tile and light fitting
- Layout drawings, wall elevations and a tile setting-out plan
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.
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.
