Working in Thornton-Cleveleys
We work right across Thornton-Cleveleys — FY2, FY5 and FY6 — and in neighbouring Poulton-le-Fylde and Fleetwood.
In Thornton-Cleveleys, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. We measure small bathrooms in Thornton-Cleveleys to the centimetre before quoting, because 50 mm can decide whether a larger tray fits. If your Thornton-Cleveleys bathroom is a box room over the stairs, the first job is finding out where the soil stack lets the WC sit.
Supplies across most of Lancashire 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
- Lighting, extractor fan and towel rail wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
- Boarding, tanking and tiling, with larger tiles where they suit the walls to cut down grout lines
- A measured survey including the door swing, window position, soil stack and any boxing that could be slimmed down
Decisions to make first
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.
Keep the bath or go walk-in
A 1500 or 1600 mm bath keeps a bath in a short room. A walk-in shower with a single glass panel opens up the floor and makes the room read as larger.
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.
