Bathroom Fitters In Walthamstow

Use a low-sheen paint (also known as eggshell or satin) on the ceilings and a semi-gloss on the walls. These are washable and moisture resistant and will prevent the build-up of mould and mildew.

Freestanding baths look nice and modern in the bathroom. The bath itself can be more expensive and there may be extra plumbing needed to conceal the pipework.

Freestanding baths often take up more space and if the bath is made of stone, your bathroom floor needs to be strong enough to handle the extra weight. There are many styles of baths on the market, so when making your choice, test for comfort by sitting in it to ensure the size and depth are right for you.

A mixer tap combines the hot and cold water before it reaches the spout and allows you to adjust the water temperature as it flows, rather than adjusting it when it’s already in the basin.

Yes, and we definitely advice is as bathroom resurfacing is a quick and easy way to achieve a bathroom that looks brand new. 

Waterproof materials are needed where there is a water outlet, and also surrounding areas such as tiles, mirror and drain. i.e. the shower recess, bath, taps and drains. 

We will also waterproof seal the floor and the surrounding area of the taps, the amount of seal all depends on what the appliances are made of.

Yes, you can. You need to consider the condition of the existing tiles and the additional weight of the new tiles. You also need to ensure you use the right adhesive. The existing tiles and grouting must be thoroughly cleaned, otherwise the adhesive will not bond. Remove the glaze off the existing tiles with a sander or grinder for better adhesion.

Heat pumps are popular. They usually come with a built-in extractor fan and as long as your ceiling is a standard height, you will feel the maximum warmth from the lamps. A more luxurious option is radiant floor heating. Electrically-heated coils or tubing are installed under your bathroom flooring and provide heat from the ground up. A plug-in heated towel rail is another relatively inexpensive option.

An extractor fan removes steam, moisture and odours quickly and most importantly, prevents the growth of mould. Make sure you vent the air to the outside of the house and not into the attic where the moisture will damage the woodwork.

The scope of the bathroom renovation dictates how long the project will take. For example, if you are completely substituting your fixtures and reconfiguring the room, the actual construction will obviously take a little bit longer. We must be able to finalise the scope of the job before answering this. We will then select the materials and when they arrive we will be able to remove old appliances and install new ones before finalizing with finishing touches and the cleanup process.

You can start by getting a good idea for the type of look and style you want. You can look at different social media pages and magazines to pick up inspiration. Also before commencing, you would want to clear out the area being worked on of all your personal belongings that can be removed.

Absolutely not; we can give you inspiration and are able to present certain design ideas if you do not have any.

Re-glazing is a great way to save money. It requires less work and eliminates the cost of installing a new tub. Many older tubs are cast iron – a very sturdy and expensive material. In addition, some older tub models may be deeper than new tubs. Yes, there are several good reasons to re-glaze but there is one big disadvantage — it doesn’t last. The glaze usually begins to wear off within a few years. Depending on usage, the tub may need to be re-glazed in three years.

However, nothing really replaces the visual appeal of a brand new tub. If you want to do it right and are not limited by budget, replacing the tub is the best way to go.
