Working in Thornaby-on-Tees
We work right across Thornaby-on-Tees — TS16, TS17 and TS18 — and in neighbouring Stockton-on-Tees and Yarm.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Thornaby-on-Tees: free survey, written quote, one team. If you live in a terrace or semi in Thornaby-on-Tees with a compact bathroom, swapping a pedestal basin and close-coupled WC for wall-hung pieces is often the biggest single gain. If the door of your Thornaby-on-Tees bathroom opens inwards and catches the basin, re-hanging it or fitting a sliding door is often part of the plan.
Most of County Durham has moderately hard water. Easy-clean glass and good-quality brassware are money well spent. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Two or three layout options, each priced, so you can compare keeping the bath with a walk-in shower
- Shorter, narrower or shower baths where a full 1700 mm bath does not sit well
- Space-saving sanitaryware: a short-projection or wall-hung WC and a compact or semi-recessed basin
- Strip-out, waste removal, testing and a clean handover
Decisions to make first
Storage
Recess shelves into stud walls or boxing, put a mirror cabinet over the basin and use the wall above the WC. Avoid floor-standing units in very tight rooms.
Glass
Clear glass with a slim profile or none lets the eye travel through the room. A fixed panel needs no clearance for a door to swing.
Rules that apply in England
In England, changes to the wiring in a room with a bath or shower are notifiable under Part P, so use an electrician registered with a competent person scheme. If you replace the extractor fan, do not fit one that extracts less than the old one; Approved Document F gives 15 litres per second for an intermittent bathroom fan.
