Working in Heanor

In Heanor we cover DE75; we also cover Ripley, 2.3 miles away, and Eastwood.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Heanor: free survey, written quote, one team. A renovation survey in Heanor looks behind the surfaces, at joists, pipework and wiring, before any figure is put on paper. In Heanor flats, the lease and the flat below are considered before a renovation is planned, particularly for moving the WC or adding a vent.

Water across much of Derbyshire is moderately hard. 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

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
Re-plastering or boarding, with cement-based boards and tanking in the wet areas
Repairs to rotten floorboards, joists or other timber found once the room is open

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.

Heating

Moving the radiator, adding a heated towel rail or laying underfloor heating is simpler while the room is stripped.

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.

Replacing a suite in the same positions usually is not. We tell you which items apply to your job and who will notify them.
