Fixtures and Fittings

These are all products that we know work, come from supplies that we know are reliable, that we can buy and if necessary swap quickly and that we know how to fit. These are the products we have used for years on our own properties. They look together!

We strongly recommend you choose the same identical products as any other choices have risks of not being suitable, not being available, not working in practice. We know we can fix our choices if they go wrong and we can get spares quickly from our regular suppliers.

In all cases we will find best, fastest, most reliable supplier with maximum trade discount applied and passed on to you in full

  1. Internal doors like these - from Selco - these are ubiquitous and come from anywhere for c£50 each - NO FROM HOWDENS

  2. Ironmongery - Carlisle Brass Andros Range like these - from SDS

  3. Kitchen -

  4. Bathroom

    1. WC and Basin - Stark 3 wall hung pan - off the floor makes the bathroom look bigger and the floor easier to clean

    2. Basin - Stark 3 basin - matches the WC

    3. Shower tray - JT Ultracast - deep means it guards against overflowing if it ever gets blocked; tile lip reduces any leak from any failure of the sealant between tray and tiles

    4. Shower mixer - Grohetherm - external fitting means no leak behind tiles from product failure and easy to change thermo cartridge and washes in due course of wear and tear

  5. Electrical supplies - switches and sockets by Contactum - from TLC - modern looking but bevel means easier to fit with cables behind

  6. Electrical supplies - lighting - suggest downlights like photo below bought over internet and wall lights from Frank Russell - fitting is independent of cast so if every broken changed in seconds without needing rewiring

  7. Tiles and grout - we use Chromtech Warm 4.0 from Domus Tiles

  8. Flooring / underlay - carpet or real wood / engineered floor?

  9. Decorating - paint and labour

  10. Furniture - mattresses from Durabeds - I get massive trade discounts - typically £120 for a 1000 pocket spring mattress that might cost £500 in a shop; I can get them made in any size

Reconciliation of payments

A Few Points!

  • All materials, fixtures and fittings have been procured at trade prices. No charge has been made to source, deliver or collect them. Most firms would add 25% or not pass on trade discounts.
