Working in Huyton

As well as Huyton itself (L14, L27 and L36), we survey in Prescot, Halewood and Allerton.

In Huyton, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If you have bought a suite and need it fitted in Huyton, we check the product list before booking so the job is not held up by a missing part. If your Huyton home runs on a combi boiler or an unvented cylinder, we check your chosen shower valve suits it before fitting.

Water across much of Merseyside is 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

Strip-out of the old suite and tiles, and removal of the waste
A survey of the room, the supplies and drainage, and the products you plan to use
Unpacking and checking delivered items before day one, so damage or missing parts can go back to the seller early
Electrical work by a qualified electrician where lights, a fan or a shaver socket are changing

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.

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

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.
