Working in Skegness

In Skegness we cover PE25; we also cover Boston, 19 miles away, and Louth.

Skegness gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. Landlords with flats or houses in Skegness can supply their own standard suites and have them fitted between tenancies. If you have bought a suite and need it fitted in Skegness, we check the product list before booking so the job is not held up by a missing part.

Water across much of Lincolnshire 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

A check of your product list against the room and the plumbing before the job is booked
Fitting the suite, furniture, screen and accessories, then silicone, testing and a clean handover
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

Decisions to make first

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.

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.

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.

What does a bathroom fitter do?

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.
