Working in Solihull
In Solihull we cover B90, B91 and B92; we also cover Shirley, 1.6 miles away, and Acocks Green.
Across a large town like Solihull, homes range from older terraces to newer estates; the survey tells us which pipework and floor we are dealing with. Whether you are in Solihull or elsewhere in the West Midlands, layout options come with an itemised written quote. If you are in Solihull and weighing a bath against a walk-in shower, the layout options show both with their prices.
Water hardness varies across the West Midlands: some supplies are soft, others moderately hard or hard. 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 conversation about who uses the room, when, and what does not work about the current one
- A lighting and electrical plan showing switches, fittings, shaver socket and extractor fan
- 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
Keep or change the layout
Keeping the WC and shower where they are saves on plumbing. The WC is the costly one to move, because it is tied to the soil stack.
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.
