Working in Smethwick

As well as Smethwick itself (B21, B66 and B67), we survey in West Bromwich, Birmingham and Aston.

In Smethwick, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. Whether you are in Smethwick or elsewhere in the West Midlands, layout options come with an itemised written quote. For loft rooms and sloping ceilings in Smethwick homes, the design checks head height where you stand, not just the floor area.

Supplies across the West Midlands range from soft to hard depending on the source. Easy-clean glass and good-quality brassware are money well spent. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

A product list covering the suite, brassware, furniture, tiles, lighting and ventilation
A conversation about who uses the room, when, and what does not work about the current one
A measured survey of the room, including ceiling heights, slopes, window and door positions and any boxing
Checks on the soil stack, waste routes, joist direction, water pressure, hot water system and existing electrics

Decisions to make first

The door

Re-hanging the door on the other side, fitting a sliding pocket door or moving the opening can free up a whole wall in a small room.

Planning for later

Timber noggins in the walls for future grab rails, a wider door or a level shower floor cost far less to build in now than to add later.

Rules that apply in England

In England, a new connection to the soil stack or new drainage can be building regulations work under Part H, and new circuits or alterations to circuits in the bathroom are notifiable under Part P. Where a new bathroom is formed, Approved Document F asks for extract at 15 l/s intermittent or 8 l/s continuous.

Who handles building control for a new bathroom design in Smethwick?

Building control for Smethwick is handled by the local council or an approved inspector. If your job needs sign-off — for example a new circuit, new drainage or a new extractor where there was none — we tell you at the survey and handle the notification as part of the work.

What happens at a bathroom design survey?

At the survey we measure and photograph the room and check the soil stack, waste routes, joists, water pressure, hot water system, electrics and ventilation. We also ask how the room is used and what you want to change. Everything that limits the layout is found at this stage, so the options we draw can actually be built.
