Working in Cheadle Hulme

We work right across Cheadle Hulme — SK3, SK7 and SK8 — and in neighbouring Bramhall and Stockport.

Homes in and around Cheadle Hulme vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. Fit-only work in Cheadle Hulme is quoted the same way as supply and fit: an itemised written quote after a survey of the room. We survey in Cheadle Hulme before quoting fit-only work, so the soil stack, supplies and walls are checked against the products you have chosen.

Supplies across most of Greater Manchester are soft. 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.

What the job includes

A check of your product list against the room and the plumbing before the job is booked
First and second-fix plumbing: supplies, wastes, isolation valves and the connection to the soil stack
Boarding, tanking in the shower area and tiling labour, with tiles and adhesive from you or sourced by us
Electrical work by a qualified electrician where lights, a fan or a shaver socket are changing

Decisions to make first

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

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.
