Working in Wellington

In Wellington we cover TF1 and TF5; we also cover Telford, 3.3 miles away, and Shrewsbury.

Wellington gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. For Wellington bathrooms keeping the same layout, fit-only is the cheaper route, because the pipework stays largely where it is. We survey in Wellington before quoting fit-only work, so the soil stack, supplies and walls are checked against the products you have chosen.

Water across much of Shropshire is 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 survey of the room, the supplies and drainage, and the products you plan to use
Electrical work by a qualified electrician where lights, a fan or a shaver socket are changing
A check of your product list against the room and the plumbing before the job is booked

Decisions to make 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.

Delivery timing

Having everything delivered and checked before the start date avoids a half-finished room while a missing part is sent again.

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.
