Which towns do we cover in Cumbria?
Most of Cumbria is supplied with soft water. That leaves you free to choose matt black, brushed brass or clear glass without worrying much about limescale. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier. If you have bought a suite and need it fitted in Carlisle, we check the product list before booking so the job is not held up by a missing part.
What the job includes
- Boarding, tanking in the shower area and tiling labour, with tiles and adhesive from you or sourced by us
- A survey of the room, the supplies and drainage, and the products you plan to use
- Fitting the suite, furniture, screen and accessories, then silicone, testing and a clean handover
- Strip-out of the old suite and tiles, and removal of the waste
- Unpacking and checking delivered items before day one, so damage or missing parts can go back to the seller early
- A check of your product list against the room and the plumbing before the job is booked
Decisions to make first
Who buys the materials
Adhesive, grout, boards, tanking, wastes and fixings can come from you or from us. The quote says which, so nothing is assumed.
Same layout or new
Keeping the layout keeps labour in the £2,200 to £4,000 range; moving the WC, shower or basin adds pipework and days.
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.
Delivery timing
Having everything delivered and checked before the start date avoids a half-finished room while a missing part is sent again.
Rules that apply in England
When you supply the products, you are responsible for them being complete, undamaged and suitable, and a claim for a faulty item goes to the retailer or manufacturer you bought it from. We are responsible for the fitting, which under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 must be carried out with reasonable care and skill. Products must also meet the water fittings rules where you live, including a maximum 6-litre flush for new WCs and backflow protection, so we raise anything that looks non-compliant before fitting it.
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.
