Working in Hove

We work right across Hove — BN1, BN3 and BN41 — and in neighbouring Brighton and Portslade.

Hove has a wide mix of house ages, so the survey is where we spot old lead pipework, weak joists or a tight soil stack. Landlords with flats or houses in Hove can supply their own standard suites and have them fitted between tenancies. Fit-only work in Hove is quoted the same way as supply and fit: an itemised written quote after a survey of the room.

Supplies across most of East Sussex are 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
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
Electrical work by a qualified electrician where lights, a fan or a shaver socket are changing

Decisions to make first

Delivery timing

Having everything delivered and checked before the start date avoids a half-finished room while a missing part is sent again.

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.

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.

Bathroom fitting in Hove: questions

How much does bathroom fitting cost in Hove?

Bathroom fitting in Hove usually costs £2,500–£6,700 including VAT. The final figure comes down to what you choose and what we find at the survey; your written quote lists every item so you can see where the money goes.

Is the home survey in Hove really free?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

Do you cover BN1 in Hove?

Yes. We cover all of Hove, including BN1, BN3 and BN41, and nearby Brighton, Portslade and Shoreham-by-Sea. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Hove?

Should I buy my own bathroom suite or let the fitter supply it?

Buying your own gives you full choice and can save money in a sale, but you take on deliveries, checking every box and any returns. Supply and fit puts that on the fitter and gives you one price for everything. If you are unsure, ask for both options on the same quote. See fitted bathrooms for supply and fit.
