Working in Cramlington

We work right across Cramlington — NE22, NE23 and NE24 — and in neighbouring Bedlington and Blyth.

In Cramlington, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If your Cramlington home has a concrete ground floor, a downstairs wet room may need the screed cut out to set the drain. We quote wet rooms in Cramlington only after looking at the floor construction, because that is where most of the cost difference lies.

Supplies across most of Northumberland are soft. If that holds for your street in Cramlington, 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

Full tanking of the floor and the shower walls, with sealed corners, pipe collars and a sealed drain connection
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
A frameless glass screen fixed to the wall and floor

Decisions to make first

Screen size

A screen of 1200 mm or more keeps spray off the rest of the room in most layouts. In a very small wet room, expect the whole floor to get wet.

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 England

In England, a new drain connection or changes at the soil stack can be building-regulations work under Part H, and new circuits or changes to the wiring in the room are notifiable under Part P. If the wet room is a newly formed bathroom, Approved Document F requires extract of 15 litres per second intermittent or 8 litres per second continuous.

More about wet rooms

Wet rooms in Cramlington: questions

How much should I budget for a wet room in Cramlington?

A wet room in Cramlington usually costs £5,400–£10,750 including VAT. The final figure comes down to what you choose and what we find at the survey; your written quote lists every item so you can see where the money goes.

How long does a wet room take?

Allow 5–10 working days on site for most jobs, plus the lead time for products after you approve the quote. We give you a day-by-day plan before work starts in Cramlington.

Is the home survey in Cramlington really free?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

Do you cover NE22 in Cramlington?

Yes. We cover all of Cramlington, including NE22, NE23 and NE24, and nearby Bedlington, Blyth and Gosforth. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Can you have a wet room on a wooden floor?

Yes. On a timber floor, the former usually sits down between the joists so the finished floor stays level, and the joists may need trimming, strengthening or extra noggins. The floor must be stiff, often with a ply overlay, so it does not flex and crack the tiles or the tanking. We check the joists at the survey before quoting.
