Working in Harrogate

We work right across Harrogate — HG1 and HG2 — and in neighbouring Ripon and Yeadon.

Across a large town like Harrogate, homes range from older terraces to newer estates; the survey tells us which pipework and floor we are dealing with. If you have bought a suite and need it fitted in Harrogate, we check the product list before booking so the job is not held up by a missing part. For Harrogate bathrooms keeping the same layout, fit-only is the cheaper route, because the pipework stays largely where it is.

Supplies across most of North Yorkshire are moderately hard. Easy-clean glass and good-quality brassware are money well spent. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

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

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.

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.
