Working in Dorking

We work right across Dorking — KT23 and RH4 — and in neighbouring Leatherhead and Reigate.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Dorking: free survey, written quote, one team. For Dorking bathrooms keeping the same layout, fit-only is the cheaper route, because the pipework stays largely where it is. Fit-only work in Dorking is quoted the same way as supply and fit: an itemised written quote after a survey of the room.

Supplies across most of Surrey are 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

Strip-out of the old suite and tiles, and removal of the waste
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
Boarding, tanking in the shower area and tiling labour, with tiles and adhesive from you or sourced by us

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.

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.
