Working in Esher

In Esher we cover KT7 and KT10; we also cover East Molesey, 2.1 miles away, and West Molesey.

Homes in and around Esher vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. Landlords with flats or houses in Esher can supply their own standard suites and have them fitted between tenancies. If your Esher home runs on a combi boiler or an unvented cylinder, we check your chosen shower valve suits it before fitting.

Water across much of Surrey is 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

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
First and second-fix plumbing: supplies, wastes, isolation valves and the connection to the soil stack

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.
