Bathroom Renovations in Tranent

George Herkes & Son Joinery (Est. 1989), a family run joinery firm based in Tranent, East Lothian, covers bathroom renovation in Tranent and the rest of East Lothian. Bathroom cost is driven by the soil pipe, the floor and the walls. The scope is itemised in writing before anything is booked.

What is found under an old bathroom floor in Tranent?

The figure depends on what is behind the tiles more than on the suite. Two identical suites can be very different jobs once the floor is up. An itemised written scope comes from George Herkes & Son Joinery (Est. 1989) before any date is set.

Stripping back to joists and masonry is how the real condition shows. Rot under the bath and dead pipes left capped are common finds. The floor is levelled and strengthened, and the walls made good for tiling.

Is a joiner better than a carpenter?

Neither is better; they describe different ends of the same trade. A joiner traditionally makes the parts, such as doors, windows, stairs and cabinets, while a carpenter builds and fixes on site. In Scotland "joiner" is the everyday word for both. George Herkes & Son Joinery (Est. 1989) does both, making pieces in its workshop and fitting them in the house.

Which type of loft conversion suits your roof?

It is the roof, not the brochure, that picks the type. A cut roof with purlins and a good bespoke joinery in Cockenzie and Port Seton ridge height usually takes a rooflight conversion. On the first visit George Herkes & Son Joinery (Est. 1989) will say which type the house suits.

A shallow pitch is where a dormer earns its place, pushing usable floor out under a roof of its own. Hip to gable rebuilds the sloping end, which suits many end houses. It is more work, and it is the difference between a room and a cupboard.

How is a fit-out staged around daily use?

George Herkes & Son Joinery (Est. 1989) carries out commercial and residential fit-outs to one standard. Typical pieces are counters, shelves, partitions and shopfront joinery. A shop cannot close for weeks, so the joinery is arranged around trading.

Pieces are completed off site, then delivered as sections. It goes in the order that keeps the till open or the kitchen working. Nobody new turns up halfway through.
