Plan a Bathroom




Once you have made your mind up just what facilities you are going to have in your brand new bathroom, you should then be able to plan, and project manage the whole installation.


Is there enough hot water?

Most houses built before 1990 use hot water that is stored in an indirect cylinder (900mm/450mm) in diameter, holding 90litres, the new cylinders hold 115/230 litres. Lets look at the shower for example, you cannot supply a power shower of 15litres per minute with water if the supplying tank only holds 90litres of hot water. Use a professional plumbing service like Waterloo Plumbers who are experienced with cylinder water volumes.

The Plan:

In terms of fitting a new bathroom, one of the most important things to be considered is the availability of the hot water supply, as if you are fitted with a condensing boiler it should not be a problem.

The room:

Decide if you are going to either, refit the existing room, extend or even knock through to a larger room.

Rate your existing/planned Bathroom:

Do this by looking at what you have and what you want and also helps you to think about facilities that may attract future buyers of your house.

Plumbers:

Most professional plumbing companies will fit a new bathroom and in some cases will supply all the materials and products. If not they normally advise where to go and source them. A Waterloo Plumber can work on all bathroom fixtures and fittings. Todays plumbers should not be ignored as a source of design and fit suppliers.

Floor plan:

Make sure that you always draw up a detailed floor plan and lay out all the facilities that will be fitted and exactly where. This is sometimes done with the help of an independent bathroom specialist who will help you to design the bathroom to your spec and budget limits.
