Getting bathroom worktop fitting in Ardleigh Green right is mostly a matter of knowing what you are dealing with before the order goes in, and that means looking properly. Larger inter-war houses on generous plots where full-width rear extensions are the norm, producing broad kitchen-family rooms with an island of 2.5-3m and bifolds across the back. Because the extensions are wide rather than deep, the island tends to sit parallel to a long back run with the hob on the island. Ask for the design and quotation visit. It is free, it carries no obligation, and it settles all of this properly.
The consumer unit and the meter often sit high on the wall at one end of the kitchen, and neither of them is going to move to suit a run of stone. Bathrooms in buildings like this are reached up a flight and worked in a room two people can barely stand in, and the visit is planned around both. The stone is the simple half of a bathroom fit.
Where the original steel windows survive at the rear, the frame sits almost flush with the inside face and there is no reveal to lose a joint in. The original bathroom in these houses is the small room over the hall, and a vanity in it is short, shallow and hard against a wall at each end, so both ends are scribed and there is no tolerance left between them. A bathroom carved out of a bedroom keeps the bedroom window.
The houses and blocks behind these jobs are 1930s semi, 1930s detached and post-war detached. The join count is decided by which of those the room sits in.
