Working in Bearsden
In Bearsden we cover G13, G15 and G61; we also cover Clydebank, 3 miles away, and Renfrew.
Homes in and around Bearsden vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If you live in a terrace or semi in Bearsden with a compact bathroom, swapping a pedestal basin and close-coupled WC for wall-hung pieces is often the biggest single gain. We measure small bathrooms in Bearsden to the centimetre before quoting, because 50 mm can decide whether a larger tray fits.
Supplies across most of Greater Glasgow are soft. 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
- A measured survey including the door swing, window position, soil stack and any boxing that could be slimmed down
- Two or three layout options, each priced, so you can compare keeping the bath with a walk-in shower
- Space-saving sanitaryware: a short-projection or wall-hung WC and a compact or semi-recessed basin
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.
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.
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.
