Working in Winchester

In Winchester we cover SO21, SO22 and SO23; we also cover Eastleigh, 6.9 miles away, and Romsey.

Winchester is a big place with every kind of home, from terraces to flats to new builds, so we never price from a photo alone. If you have bought a suite and need it fitted in Winchester, we check the product list before booking so the job is not held up by a missing part. For Winchester bathrooms keeping the same layout, fit-only is the cheaper route, because the pipework stays largely where it is.

Water across much of Hampshire 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

Strip-out of the old suite and tiles, and removal of the waste
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
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.

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.

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.
