Working in Ossett

As well as Ossett itself (WF5, WF12 and WF13), we survey in Dewsbury, Batley and Wakefield.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Ossett: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Ossett home runs on a combi boiler or an unvented cylinder, we check your chosen shower valve suits it before fitting. For Ossett bathrooms keeping the same layout, fit-only is the cheaper route, because the pipework stays largely where it is.

Water across much of West Yorkshire 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
Unpacking and checking delivered items before day one, so damage or missing parts can go back to the seller early
A survey of the room, the supplies and drainage, and the products you plan to use
Strip-out of the old suite and tiles, and removal of the waste

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.

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.

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.
