Bathroom Installation Materials
Various types of bathroom materials are sourced and fitted to create your Bathroom in Colchester, including:
- Flooring
- Wall Coverings
- Fixtures & Fittings
- Heating & Lighting
Bathroom Flooring
The bathroom flooring looks good. It complements your Bathroom’s look and design. It is waterproof and should be non-slip.
Vinyl Flooring
Vinyl is a popular bathroom flooring material. It’s reasonably priced, durable, swift, and straightforward to cut and fit. Vinyl is available in many colours and designs, supplied on a roll or in packs of tiles. Care must be taken when using vinyl flooring, as it’s 100% waterproof. However, it can be slippery when wet, and there are better choices if children or older people use the bathrooms.
Rubber Flooring
Rubber is an option for bathrooms used by those more prone to slipping. Rubber is waterproof, grippy and soft, helping to prevent slippages and injury in an accidental fall. Like vinyl, rubber is supplied on rolls or as tiles. However, the designs and colour choices are limited.
Treated Concrete Flooring
Treated concrete is a good bathroom material that suits some modern bathroom designs. However, it requires retreating every couple of years to keep the surface non-porous and waterproof. On the other hand, concrete is a relatively economical flooring material.
Porcelain Tiles
Porcelain tiles are the most commonly used bathroom flooring material. They are available in many designs, patterns, colours, textures, and shapes to suit any bathroom style. Porcelain is used over ceramic because it’s more durable and less likely to crack under daily foot traffic. In addition, some floor tiles are textured, which makes them more grippy.
Other less common bathroom flooring materials include slate, marble, and engineered wood. These are fine if you’re careful with water and don’t get them too wet.
Bathroom Walls
Your choice of bathroom wall materials will complement the flooring and create your Bathroom’s overall look and fBathroomerproof Wall Panels
Bathroom wall materials must be waterproof in the bath and shower areas and resistant to heat, water and moisture in other areas.
Panels
Bathroom wall panels are 100% waterproof, with many designs and colours on offer, and are quicker to fit than tiles. Panels can be PVC, laminated or acrylic. They are easy to clean and require no maintenance, unlike tiles that need regrouting every few years.
Wall Tiles
Like flooring tiles, wall tiles are the most popular wall material. They look great in all bathrooms and are available in many shapes, colours, textures and patterns. Wall tiles are generally made from standard ceramic, which is easier to cut than porcelain. However, porcelain tiles are still available for walls. Other materials include glass and slate.
All bathrooms will have panels or tiles fitted, either in the wet zone areas of the shower and bath or even covering the whole Bathroom.
Paint
Bathroom wall areas that are not tiled or panelled are generally painted. Bathroom paint is available in hundreds of colours, has a silk finish, is waterproof, and is easy to clean.
Cladding
Wood cladding can be fitted as long as it’s treated and not in bath and shower areas. Wood cladding suits some traditional and country bathroom designs.
Bathroom Fixtures & Fittings
Fixtures and fittings include the bathroom suite, shower, taps, storage units, etc.
Bathroom Suites
Bathroom suites include the bath, basin, toilet, and shower enclosure. All parts of the bathroom suite are available in different sizes and shapes to accommodate all bathroom sizes and shapes. Most suites are white and in different styles to suit modern or traditional bathroom designs. Modern suites are sleek with sharper edges, while traditional suites are more rounded.
Bath Options
Baths are mainly made from acrylic or steel. Other alternative materials include copper and stone, which are considered luxury baths. Baths come in several types. There are standard baths with a panel. There are shower baths with a wider front to make a shower enclosure. There are also free-standing and corner baths. All are available in various lengths and widths. Baths with panels hide all the plumbing pipes, which are easy to access in the event of a fault. The plumbing for free-standing baths is cleverly hidden out of sight.
Toilet Options
All new toilets include the latest water-saving flush systems, which are better for the environment and if you have a water meter in your pocket. Toilets include standard close-coupled types, where the cistern sits on top of the toilet, and high cisterns. The latter are generally fitted in Victorian-style bathrooms, a classic design with a powerful flush. Modern toilets include wall-hung and back-to-the-wall toilets, where the cistern is hidden. Corner toilets are also available.
Basin Options
There are over a dozen types of bathroom basins, including pedestal, stand-mounted, and built-in units. If you have a modern bathroom with a wall-hung toilet, you can have a wall-hung basin to match. Basins can also be fitted on counters, insets, or underneath counters.
Shower Options
Most bathrooms include a shower fitted in an enclosure or over the bath. There are many types of showers. These include traditional mixers and thermostatic showers, which are very safe. They keep the water at a constant temperature to prevent scalding. There are also electric showers, which heat water instantly, and digital and power showers.
Tap Options
Your basin and baths have taps. They include traditional types like pillar, mixer, monobloc, and thermostatic. All taps fitted include the latest ceramic cartridges, which last a long time.
Storage Units & Shelving
The bathroom design considers storage units and shelving. They are put in the right areas to ensure enough space for towels and day-to-day items. There are so many options when it comes to bathroom suites, and our bathroom designer will go through all of them with you during the survey.
Bathroom Heating
Most bathrooms include radiators. Heated towel rail radiators are fitted in most bathrooms as everyone loves a warm towel when exiting the bath or shower. Underfloor heating is also an option and works exceptionally well with heated towel rail radiators. We fit wet (works with your boiler) and electric underfloor heating systems.
Bathroom Lighting
Bathroom lights that withstand heat and moisture are fitted into the ceiling. The correct bulb colour and strength are selected to complement your bathroom design. Additional lighting is fitted over mirrors if required.
