Working in Frinton-on-Sea

We cover every part of Frinton-on-Sea, including CO13 and CO14, and nearby Walton-on-the-Naze (1.6 miles) and Clacton-on-Sea (4.7 miles).

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Frinton-on-Sea: free survey, written quote, one team. If the door of your Frinton-on-Sea bathroom opens inwards and catches the basin, re-hanging it or fitting a sliding door is often part of the plan. If nobody in your Frinton-on-Sea home has used the bath in years, we can price a walk-in shower layout next to a shorter bath so you can compare.

Most of Essex 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

Two or three layout options, each priced, so you can compare keeping the bath with a walk-in shower
Recessed niches, mirror cabinets and wall-hung vanity units to get storage off the floor
Strip-out, waste removal, testing and a clean handover
Shorter, narrower or shower baths where a full 1700 mm bath does not sit well

Decisions to make first

WC type

A short-projection close-coupled WC sits closer to the wall than a standard pan. A wall-hung WC on a concealed frame shows the floor beneath it and is easier to clean around.

Tiles and grout

Larger tiles with a grout close to the tile colour make walls look calmer. Running the same floor tile into the shower makes the floor look continuous.

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.

What storage works in a small bathroom?

Storage that comes off the floor works well: a wall-hung vanity under the basin, a mirror cabinet above it and recessed niches in the shower wall. Boxing around the soil stack or cistern can often be rebuilt with a shelf on top. Avoid deep units that stop the door opening fully.
