Do low-flow mixers actually work in a Burslem home?

Aerated mixers at 4-6 l/min feel identical to standard 8-10 l/min taps — the aeration masks the flow drop. Standard on our Burslem eco refits.

Dual-flush 3/4L rimless pans — same footprint as standard, half the water use. Standard on every Burslem eco install.

Can I insulate a bathroom on an external wall?

Yes — 50mm PIR behind battened plasterboard, tiled over. Adds 65mm to wall depth but knocks external-wall heat loss noticeably in older Burslem properties.

Is a heat-recovery extract worth it?

In new builds and passivhaus retrofits, yes — MVHR pulls extract heat back into the house. Standalone bathroom heat-recovery fans exist and are viable on selected Burslem projects.

Can you fit a bathroom in a Victorian terrace without losing too much space?

Yes — much of our work in Burslem is in narrow Victorian terraces. We typically reset the door swing, move the basin onto a wall-hung run and recess the WC cistern to free up usable floor.

Do you provide a fixed-price quote before starting?

Always. After a free home visit in Burslem we send a fully itemised, fixed-price quotation — no surprises on invoice day.

An eco bathroom in a Burslem property isn't a marketing badge — it's a series of choices about water use, embodied carbon and lifetime service. Dual-flush WCs at 3/4L, aerated basin mixers rated at 4-6 l/min, LED zoned lighting, and PIR insulation to external walls.

We spec fittings against actual measured water use, not just brand claims. On most Burslem eco refits we cut fixture water use by 35-50% without the household noticing anything except the water bill.

We've fitted bathroom fitting in Burslem long enough to know the houses inside out.
