Working in Weymouth

In Weymouth we cover DT3 and DT4; we also cover Dorchester, 7.2 miles away, and Poole.

In Weymouth, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. We survey in Weymouth before quoting fit-only work, so the soil stack, supplies and walls are checked against the products you have chosen. Fit-only work in Weymouth is quoted the same way as supply and fit: an itemised written quote after a survey of the room.

Water across much of Dorset is hard. We plan easy-clean glass, rimless toilets and finishes that do not show limescale. 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
A survey of the room, the supplies and drainage, and the products you plan to use
Electrical work by a qualified electrician where lights, a fan or a shaver socket are changing
Unpacking and checking delivered items before day one, so damage or missing parts can go back to the seller early

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.

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.

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.

What does a bathroom fitter do?

A bathroom fitter removes the old bathroom, installs new pipework and wastes, boards and prepares the walls, tiles, and fits the bath or shower, basin, WC, furniture and accessories. Electrical work in a bathroom is done by a qualified electrician, and any gas work, such as moving a boiler, by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
