Working in Houghton-Le-Spring
We work right across Houghton-Le-Spring — DH4, SR3 and SR4 — and in neighbouring Chester-le-Street and Washington.
Homes in and around Houghton-Le-Spring vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. For Houghton-Le-Spring bathrooms keeping the same layout, fit-only is the cheaper route, because the pipework stays largely where it is. Landlords with flats or houses in Houghton-Le-Spring can supply their own standard suites and have them fitted between tenancies.
Water across much of Tyne and Wear 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
- 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
- Fitting the suite, furniture, screen and accessories, then silicone, testing and a clean handover
Decisions to make first
Fit-only or supply and fit
Fit-only lets you choose and buy every product yourself; supply and fit puts sourcing, deliveries and returns on us, with one price for everything.
Who buys the materials
Adhesive, grout, boards, tanking, wastes and fixings can come from you or from us. The quote says which, so nothing is assumed.
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.
