Working in Crowthorne

In Crowthorne we cover GU47, RG40 and RG45; we also cover Sandhurst, 1.6 miles away, and Yateley.

Homes in and around Crowthorne vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. A renovation survey in Crowthorne looks behind the surfaces, at joists, pipework and wiring, before any figure is put on paper. If your Crowthorne home is older and the bathroom still has original pipework or plaster behind the tiles, the survey shows whether a renovation or a refit makes more sense.

Supplies across most of Berkshire 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

Layout changes such as moved doors, new stud walls or boxing for concealed cisterns
Strip-out back to brick or studwork, with waste taken away by a licensed waste carrier
New hot and cold pipework and wastes, with isolation valves to each fitting
A survey of the structure and services: joists, walls, ceilings, pipework, wastes, wiring and ventilation

Decisions to make first

Plaster or boards

Plaster suits dry walls that will be painted. Cement-based tile backer boards are the better base behind showers and under heavy tiles.

Pipe material

Copper suits exposed runs and the area near the boiler. Plastic pipe is quicker under floors and inside walls, and long runs need fewer joints.

Rules that apply in England

In England, structural changes, new drainage or a new connection to the soil stack under Part H, and new circuits under Part P can all be building regulations work. A registered electrician can self-certify the electrics; structural and drainage work may need a building notice or a full plans application to building control.
