Most of Merseyside is supplied with soft water. 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. If you have bought a suite and need it fitted in Liverpool, we check the product list before booking so the job is not held up by a missing part.
What the job includes
- Electrical work by a qualified electrician where lights, a fan or a shaver socket are changing
- Strip-out of the old suite and tiles, and removal of the waste
- Boarding, tanking in the shower area and tiling labour, with tiles and adhesive from you or sourced by us
- 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
- A survey of the room, the supplies and drainage, and the products you plan to use
Decisions to make first
Tiling
Some customers tile themselves or use a separate tiler. That can work, but the order of trades and who tanks the shower area must be agreed 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.
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.
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.
Rules that apply in England
When you supply the products, you are responsible for them being complete, undamaged and suitable, and a claim for a faulty item goes to the retailer or manufacturer you bought it from. We are responsible for the fitting, which under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 must be carried out with reasonable care and skill. Products must also meet the water fittings rules where you live, including a maximum 6-litre flush for new WCs and backflow protection, so we raise anything that looks non-compliant before fitting it.
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.
