Working in Crewe

We cover every part of Crewe, including CW1 and CW2, and nearby Nantwich (3.8 miles) and Sandbach (4.6 miles).

Crewe has a wide mix of house ages, so the survey is where we spot old lead pipework, weak joists or a tight soil stack. If you have bought a suite and need it fitted in Crewe, we check the product list before booking so the job is not held up by a missing part. Fit-only work in Crewe is quoted the same way as supply and fit: an itemised written quote after a survey of the room.

Supplies across most of Cheshire are moderately 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

First and second-fix plumbing: supplies, wastes, isolation valves and the connection to the soil stack
Boarding, tanking in the shower area and tiling labour, with tiles and adhesive from you or sourced by us
Unpacking and checking delivered items before day one, so damage or missing parts can go back to the seller early
Strip-out of the old suite and tiles, and removal of the waste

Decisions to make first

Making good

Decide whether you want the quote to cover making good and decorating, or to stop at the tiles so you can paint yourself.

Tiling

Some customers tile themselves or use a separate tiler. That can work, but the order of trades and who tanks the shower area must be agreed first.

Rules that apply in England

In England, the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999 apply to the products you supply as well as to the installation. Electrical changes such as new lights or a fan are notifiable under Part P and are done by a registered electrician or notified to building control. New drainage or a new connection to the soil stack can be Part H work.
