Working in Braintree
We work right across Braintree — CM7 and CM77 — and in neighbouring Witham and Chelmsford.
In Braintree, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If your Braintree home runs on a combi boiler or an unvented cylinder, we check your chosen shower valve suits it before fitting. If you have bought a suite and need it fitted in Braintree, we check the product list before booking so the job is not held up by a missing part.
Water across much of Essex is very 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
- Electrical work by a qualified electrician where lights, a fan or a shaver socket are changing
- A check of your product list against the room and the plumbing before the job is booked
- Boarding, tanking in the shower area and tiling labour, with tiles and adhesive from you or sourced by us
- First and second-fix plumbing: supplies, wastes, isolation valves and the connection to the soil stack
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.
