Working in Craigavon

We cover every part of Craigavon, including BT63, BT64, BT65 and 2 more postcode districts, and nearby Portadown (2.8 miles) and Banbridge (7.9 miles).

In Craigavon, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If you are planning a wet room in Craigavon for level access, we design the fall and drain so the floor is flush from the doorway. In a compact Craigavon bathroom, a wet room frees the space a tray and enclosure would take, but expect the whole floor to get wet.

Water across much of County Armagh is soft. If that holds for your street in Craigavon, limescale on shower glass and heads builds up slowly and a squeegee after use is usually enough. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

A frameless glass screen fixed to the wall and floor
A survey of the floor construction, the joist size and direction or the concrete slab, and the route to the soil stack
Extractor fan and lighting by a qualified electrician, tested and certified, with underfloor heating if you choose it
Slip-resistant porcelain floor tiles and wall tiling

Decisions to make first

Open or screened

A fully open shower with no glass only works in a larger room, with the basin, WC and towels well away from the spray.

Former or screed

A pre-formed board gives a consistent fall and suits timber floors. A sand and cement screed suits concrete slabs and larger shower areas.

Rules that apply in Northern Ireland

In Northern Ireland, building control covers new drainage, ventilation and structural changes to the floor. There is no Part P, but the electrics should be tested and certified to BS 7671.

Is the water hard in Craigavon?

Does a wet room in Craigavon need building control approval?

Building control in Craigavon is run by the local district council. Where approval is needed, for example for new drainage, we tell you at the survey and handle it as part of the job.

What is tanking in a wet room?

Tanking is the waterproof layer under the tiles that stops water reaching the floor and walls. It is usually a liquid or sheet membrane, with sealing tape at every corner, board joint and pipe. Tiles and grout are not waterproof on their own, so the tanking is what actually keeps the water in.
