Working in Burgess Hill

In Burgess Hill we cover RH15; we also cover Haywards Heath, 3 miles away, and Lewes.

In Burgess Hill, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. Landlords with flats or houses in Burgess Hill can supply their own standard suites and have them fitted between tenancies. If you have bought a suite and need it fitted in Burgess Hill, we check the product list before booking so the job is not held up by a missing part.

Supplies across most of West Sussex 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
A check of your product list against the room and the plumbing before the job is booked
Fitting the suite, furniture, screen and accessories, then silicone, testing and a clean handover
First and second-fix plumbing: supplies, wastes, isolation valves and the connection to the soil stack

Decisions to make first

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.

Same layout or new

Keeping the layout keeps labour in the £2,200 to £4,000 range; moving the WC, shower or basin adds pipework and days.

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.
