day by day photos of bathroom refurb

[johnryan]

hello all, just thought some of you might be interested to see a day by day photo diary of a bathroom i'm doing over the weekend (hopefully finish on monday). i'm doing the ewpar with max at able skills at the moment, and as a way of him seeing some up to date jobs i've set up a free website that i can put photos and a few words on for him to look at. no tiles up yet as a lot of prep work was needed, but i'm putting pics up from yesterday morning when i first started. any comments and advice are welcome
anyway, here's the link to the site
photo diary of bathroom in ashford started today 11 march 2001 - Home
there's going to be a lot of pictures up by monday, so i thought rather than fill the servers here up with them, i'd put them off site. doing a porcelaine floor next, so may do one for that too. cheers.

If the board has been upgraded to meet the 17th edition then no secondry earth bonding is requiered.
The gas and watermain should be bonded back to the board.
your electrician will Know all this

I have spoken to 2 of my sparkys they would still secondry bond in bathroom just because you dont have to does not mean it is the best way:smiley2:

When my sparky comes to do work unless he can check ZE readings before we start amongst other things the safe and easy and quick way to carry out work is to use plastic pipe electrics is not straight forward any more we have wall switches in the bathroom as long as they are in correct zone many sparks just wont put a wall switch in bathroom you can technicaly have a socket as i am sure you are aware i was only pointing out the need to check earthing out you can now get dimmable led lights again better to control lights with dimmer switch in room part p can be inturpreted in lots of ways i use 2 diffrent sparks who are happy to push the boundres to get the best bathroom i cant answer all your tech questions but i am happy they push the boundries in a safe way wish i just stuck to tiling!
