Working in Crowborough

We work right across Crowborough — TN6 — and in neighbouring Tunbridge Wells and Uckfield.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Crowborough: free survey, written quote, one team. If you have just bought a house in Crowborough, renovating the bathroom before moving in saves living through the dust. If your Crowborough 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.

Most of East Sussex has hard water. 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

New hot and cold pipework and wastes, with isolation valves to each fitting
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
Re-plastering or boarding, with cement-based boards and tanking in the wet areas

Decisions to make first

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.

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.

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.
