Cloakroom bathroom fitters

Alexander James Projects prices it from the room in front of us. A new WC with drainage is more work than replacing the fittings in a cloakroom you already have.

Often, yes, if there is headroom, a waste route and ventilation. Short-projection WCs and compact basins are used where the triangle of the stairs is tight.

Internal work does not normally need planning permission. A listed home may need listed building consent. Building regulations usually still apply because of drainage and ventilation.

There is no legal minimum floor area for a WC in an existing UK home. Comfortable use, a basin and a clear door swing are what the measure-up checks.

Small rooms are the place to be bold. Panelling, a deep colour, patterned tiles, a statement basin and tap, and good lighting give a cloakroom character. Because the room is small, the materials show. Named paint brands are not listed until Alex confirms them.

It depends mainly on whether you are refreshing an existing cloakroom or creating a new one. A new WC, including one under the stairs, needs a waste route, water, ventilation, lighting and often a stud wall and door. Alexander James Projects prices each cloakroom after a home visit.

Yes. Panelling is one of the most effective ways to give a cloakroom character, and the portfolio already includes panelled cloakrooms. In a WC the boards and paint need to cope with moisture. The towns those photographs belong to are not recorded.
