Working in Carnoustie

We cover every part of Carnoustie, including DD7, and nearby Arbroath (6.1 miles) and Dundee (10.5 miles).

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Carnoustie: free survey, written quote, one team. For a small Carnoustie bathroom with no window, a quiet extractor fan on an overrun timer does more for the room than any tile choice. If the door of your Carnoustie bathroom opens inwards and catches the basin, re-hanging it or fitting a sliding door is often part of the plan.

Most of Dundee and Angus 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

Recessed niches, mirror cabinets and wall-hung vanity units to get storage off the floor
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
Boarding, tanking and tiling, with larger tiles where they suit the walls to cut down grout lines

Decisions to make first

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.

Door

Re-hanging the door to open outwards, or fitting a sliding door, frees the space behind it. In a very small room this alone can make space for a bigger shower.

Rules that apply in Scotland

In Scotland, building standards apply rather than Part P. A like-for-like refit rarely needs a building warrant, but altering the drainage, for example moving the WC to a new connection, may. Wiring should be tested and certified to BS 7671.

Is the water hard in Carnoustie?

Wall-hung or floor-standing toilet in a small bathroom?

A wall-hung toilet makes a small bathroom look larger and is easier to clean around, because the floor runs underneath it. It needs a concealed frame inside a false wall or boxing roughly 150 to 200 mm deep, which can often go where pipe boxing already sits. A back-to-wall pan in a slim furniture unit is a good middle option.
