Why Reigate Bathrooms Fail Behind the Tiles
Abinger Construction Ltd, a Dorking building company specialising in bathrooms, wetrooms and home renovations, covers waterproofing and tanking in Reigate and the wider Surrey area. Tanking is the waterproof membrane under the tiles, and it is treated as the core of every bathroom and wet room rather than a stage to rush.
Why is waterproofing the most important stage of a bathroom?
Tanking is a waterproof membrane applied to walls and floors before any tile goes on. Grout lets moisture through over time, and the substrate behind it takes the harm. At Abinger Construction Ltd, the tanking stage gets the most care, because it decides whether the room lasts.
Most future bathroom problems trace back to a rushed waterproofing stage. Joints, corners and outlets are the details a careful installer checks twice. Each detail should be checked before it is covered up.
What is the best time to renovate a bathroom?
When products can be chosen and ordered before the build starts, and at a point in the year when the household can manage with one bathroom out of use. Lead times on tiles and brassware often decide the real start date. Homes house extension near me with a second bathroom or a downstairs WC can start whenever the products are ready.
Is a basement project possible for a Reigate home?
New basement space and basement renovation are both Abinger Construction Ltd work, whether the extra square footage becomes a lounge or a practical laundry.
The Kew project added a basement extension that gave the owners another entire floor, and the rest of the property was transformed at the same time over a 24 month build. Basement projects carry more structural and permit work than most, so a clear written programme matters even more.
What to convert a basement into?
Anything that suits living below ground: a family room, cinema, gym, home office, guest bedroom, utility or laundry room. Rooms that need little daylight are the easiest fit. A bedroom is possible but brings extra rules on escape routes, light and ventilation.
How is an occupied home kept liveable during a refit?
Usually you can, and Abinger Construction Ltd has completed many projects with the household still living in. Mess is contained to the area being worked on, so the rest of the property carries on as normal.
Living in during a build works when access routes are protected and the site is cleared at the end of each day. Planning the loudest stages around the household makes a difference. If there is a second bathroom, a refit barely touches daily routine.
