At Teammax we know that to make a house a home there are so many variables – of those include security, insulation and ambiance.

Security
AnswerWhen you want to replace your windows and doors, security takes precedence. The products we provide are robust and designed to withstand many attempts of forced entry.
Insulation
AnswerWhen considering what type of window or door to install, consider the difference between double and triple glazing. The increase in insulation will offset the higher investment in the product with reduced energy bills in the future, saving you money and contributing to protecting the environment.
Ambiance
AnswerAll our windows and doors reduce sound and as builders and installers, we can advise you on how to maximise the natural lighting available to your property and really lift the atmosphere of your home.
Style of Windows
AnswerCasement windows are the most commonly used windows and cost effective product. They allow the maximum light into the room and come in double or triple glazing. They can also come flush, sitting within the frame with strictly ‘traditional’ in mind.

Perhaps you have a cottage in the countryside? You can benefit from the advances of modern technology and replicate the traditional cottage style with cottage windows.

Bay windows can be replaced with double or triple glazing. It’s a smart setup, giving you more space in the room.

Sliding sash windows are also available in double or triple glazing if you want to avoid the now commonplace ‘turning’ window – or you may consider the tilt and turn double glazing, enabling more effective ventilation and the ability to clean easily.

Colours
AnswerThink about the style of brick work and the surrounding area when you consider replacing your windows. When we come to visit your property we will advise you from a point of experience but it really is an opportunity for you to become creative.
Shapes
AnswerWe are able to provide different shapes from the standard windows, be it a regency, a triangle or a gothic arch, we can get the right fit for you.
Style of Door
AnswerWe can help you with your new doors whether you prefer uPVC, wood a composite or aluminium. They are energy efficient, low maintenance and secure. One of our team will happily guide you through your options.

We can provide sliding doors, french doors and bi folding doors as well as front and back doors.

Planning Permission
AnswerIs not usually required if the windows and doors are going to fit into the original walls, however this may change if you want to reconfigure the setup.

It’s always best to contact your local authority if you are unsure.

Things To Consider For Your New Kitchen

At Teammax, our goal is to provide you with the renovation of your dreams. We will run that extra mile in order to give you perfection.

But don’t let us tell you what perfection is. Tell us. How can your kitchen change your life for the better?

Designing your own kitchen should be one of the most exciting renovation projects you can undertake, however it can also be difficult to get it right, which is why our team will take you through each step, making sure you are happy before you proceed.

This article aims to help you make those decisions, with some key choices you need to make in the design of your new bespoke kitchen.

Identify The Purpose Of Your Kitchen
AnswerWhat do you use the kitchen for? Is it somewhere you entertain guests? Are you combining your cooking space with a chill out area, or a space for the kids to play and do their homework? On the contrary, perhaps you would prefer to keep this space separate and have a simply defined cooking with dining space?

This really should be the first thing you identify before you move forward as this will affect your choice of not only the types of cabinets and surface tops but the number of them. It will also inform your choice of flooring, lighting, heating and layout plan… a great place start then!

Plumbing And Electricity
AnswerOnce we have the purpose and layout of your new kitchen decided, the practical side must come on in. Anything is possible, what you need to decide is what appliances you want and where you want them.

Necessities such as plug points should be spread and placed for ease of use, giving you access to power where you need it and without cluttering your workspaces. Generally items like sinks and dishwashers are kept close together to ensure simple plumbing requirements, however each kitchen is different and we can always provide a solution!

Lighting
AnswerOnce we know where everything is going, we can decide how best to light it. Lighting can be used functionally, but also to create mood and atmosphere. Consider, when choosing your colour scheme and layout if you want to highlight a worktop with a separate spotlight or create some backlight along your cabinets with LED’s to create that ultra-modern look.

It’s useful to consider operating these lights on separate circuits in order to light the room in separate zones – thereby fully utilising and appreciating the space.

Of course, we don’t forget the power of natural light. Natural light can completely alter the energy in a room, so we are able to provide you with a cost effective opportunity to increase the amount of natural light into your kitchen – including the fitting and we can guide you on whether to consider extending the room or increasing the size of the window.

Ultimately, it’s all up to you.

Splashback
AnswerTeammax Ltd has long been recognised as a tiling specialist, having been named as one of the recommended installers of Domus Group, a reputable and bespoke tile supplier, we can guide you through this specialist process. Is it the sharp precision of a porcelain tile you want to flow through the heart of your home or a softer, more relaxed finish on a ceramic tile?

Precision is really what sets us apart from any competitor, be it the spacing or the symmetry through the walls and floor. At Teammax we are keen to point out that each millimetre makes a difference and the quality of a particular tile should form part of your decision, but we can give you practical guidance from an experienced member of our team.

Heating
AnswerWhile the kitchen is undergoing a makeover it is worthwhile addressing the heating situation. If you want to free up some space, underfloor heating is an ideal solution. While it is a slightly higher investment, its adds a touch of bespoke luxury to your design, removes any space pinching radiators and can be cost effective to run.

If this is not the route you want to go, then have a think about the positioning of your radiators. Perhaps tall wall mounted radiators will work better for small spaces, or something closer to the dining space, in a larger kitchen.

Worktops
AnswerWe will assist you in choosing the correct worktops for your requirements. So many factors come to the fore in choosing worktops but we have experience installing quartz, marble, wood, stainless steel – this a variable unique to your kitchen and it is your preference that will influence the end result.
Cabinets
AnswerThe correct storage space is essential to the integrity of a finished kitchen. Consider the proportions of your room, islands don’t fit well with all spaces and you can create more space in the room if you consider floor to ceiling cabinets. Corner carousels help you claim back space between cabinets which would otherwise have been rendered void and don’t forget how you plan the finish. Colours in the furniture complimenting the tiling on the walls, or the floor?

Mix things up, we will help you source furnishings from different places to create your own individual bespoke luxury kitchen.

Boiler
AnswerGetting a new boiler can appear to be a strenuous decision, but you don’t need to be a plumbing expert to be able to decide which boiler should be used in your home.

Our experts can help you evaluate the space, taking into consideration the house, including the number of taps which will be likely running at the same time, or perhaps you have a smaller property without space for a boiler room. We can help you install a brand new boiler inside a kitchen cabinet for example, running all the pipes discreetly and safely.

This is a summary designed to help you as you consider redeveloping your kitchen.

There will obviously still be many questions you will have and here at Teammax, we have experts who are able to guide you to the finished kitchen you truly want, giving you a vibrant pulse at the heart of your home.

Things To Consider For Your New Bathroom

Tell us what you want and we can help you design your own bespoke bathroom designed to serve your needs for years to come.

Identify The Purpose Of Your Bathroom
AnswerWhat is it that you want from your bathroom?

Is the purpose to serve you and provide you those moments of private tranquillity?

Or does it need to function as a family unit, enduring almost constant usage while retaining serenity?

Or is it an en-suite to the master bedroom, serving solely you and (maybe, sometimes) your partner?

A private space to prepare you in the morning?

Or to assist you in unwinding after a long day at work?

Once you know what you want from your bathroom, we can then move forward with ease and clarity.

Bath Or Shower
AnswerOr both? This option comes down to 3 things: space, purpose and budget. We can help you with two of those variables and we can stretch the third, but ultimately it depends on the energy you want in the room. Is it a bath to relax and wind down the tension from a long day, a space to soak and revitalise the muscles, or perhaps there is a need for pace, to refresh with a purpose in a strong shower space.

Whatever you want to fit in we will assist you in the configuration of the room in order to make it work, and we can show you the best products to suit your criteria. If you choose to take a shower, a shower area can add significant value to your bathroom and property. It’s eye-catching and what’s more, will radiate a feeling of freedom and liberty that no traditional shower cubicle can. If it’s a really small space we can even open it up and fit a wet-room for you.

Lighting
AnswerThis is imperative. Consider recessed fixtures throughout the ceiling to really brighten up the room. You can include one in the shower and use a dimmer switch which will allow you to adjust the mood in your bathroom.

Also consider the fittings, such as mirrors. Will you need functional bright lighting for shaving or applying beauty products?

Aesthetically it works so well to have a recessed shelf or cabinet (if you have the space) with its own light source. Spotlights can light specific areas and you can always vary the colour in order to adjust your atmosphere.

Cabinets
AnswerAs mentioned above, do you have the space for recessed cabinets which will give you more space in the room? Will you go for easy to access drawer storage or cabinets, all of which we can discuss and conclude when one of our experts visits your property.
Plumbing
AnswerA quintessential aspect of any bathroom, which you can also customise to your preference and comfort. Do you want it concealed? Or would you opt for the exposed piping, with a rustic traditional feel? Our experts are experienced in that they can arrange your bathroom to your best choosing, rearranging the pipe work. Perhaps you’ll opt for concealed pipes around you’re sink to avoid the build of limescale, while the exposed options enable easy maintenance.

Perhaps you’re aware of the wall hung pan, a toilet protruding from the wall, with the tank concealed inside the wall (you can still access the components via the flush panel). We think it’s a beautiful configuration and can give you the element of spatial freedom and elegance. Included in this, we will fully waterproof the elements that require it, known as tanking. Our team is experienced in this and fully capable of making your space fit for purpose.

Tiling
AnswerWe are reknowned for tiling in the industry, being a recommended installer for Domus Tiles and CP Hart, both well respected industry leaders in the luxury bathroom trade. Consider the ambience of the room, is it precision you require, or the rounded edges and softer feel?

We recognise that every millimetre makes a difference and will advise you from our experience on which grade of tiles to use for your purpose. All our installers are experienced and strive for perfection, focussing attention on all the little details. Symmetry across the walls, through the grouting from wall to ceiling across the room, to the 45 degree edge on the corner of your recessed shelving, we practice the finest attention to every little detail, to give you that luxury tailored bespoke finish.

This guide is meant to assist you as you move forward with your new bathroom and hopefully will help you reach a better idea of what you want to achieve.

Ultimately, everyone here at Teammax Ltd is committed to providing the bathroom you desire.
