Working in Great Sankey
We work right across Great Sankey — WA5 — and in neighbouring Warrington and Newton-le-Willows.
In Great Sankey, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If you have just bought a house in Great Sankey, renovating the bathroom before moving in saves living through the dust. A renovation survey in Great Sankey looks behind the surfaces, at joists, pipework and wiring, before any figure is put on paper.
Most of Cheshire has moderately hard water. Easy-clean glass and good-quality brassware are money well spent. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- A survey of the structure and services: joists, walls, ceilings, pipework, wastes, wiring and ventilation
- New wiring, lighting, extractor fan and RCD protection, installed and certified by a qualified electrician
- Layout changes such as moved doors, new stud walls or boxing for concealed cisterns
- Tiling, fitting of the suite and furniture, making good and decorating, then handover
Decisions to make first
Heating
Moving the radiator, adding a heated towel rail or laying underfloor heating is simpler while the room is stripped.
How far back to strip
Back to brick gives a clean start. Keeping sound plaster on some walls saves time and money, and the survey shows which walls can stay.
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.
