Working in Hornchurch

In Hornchurch we cover RM2, RM11 and RM12; we also cover Romford, 1.8 miles away, and Dagenham.

London homes in Hornchurch often mean stairs, permits and neighbours below; we plan the logistics as carefully as the bathroom. Fit-only work in Hornchurch is quoted the same way as supply and fit: an itemised written quote after a survey of the room. We survey in Hornchurch before quoting fit-only work, so the soil stack, supplies and walls are checked against the products you have chosen.

Water across much of Greater London 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

First and second-fix plumbing: supplies, wastes, isolation valves and the connection to the soil stack
Electrical work by a qualified electrician where lights, a fan or a shaver socket are changing
A survey of the room, the supplies and drainage, and the products you plan to use
Strip-out of the old suite and tiles, and removal of the waste

Decisions to make first

Fit-only or supply and fit

Fit-only lets you choose and buy every product yourself; supply and fit puts sourcing, deliveries and returns on us, with one price for everything.

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

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.

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.
