What the job includes

A survey of the structure and services: joists, walls, ceilings, pipework, wastes, wiring and ventilation
Repairs to rotten floorboards, joists or other timber found once the room is open
New wiring, lighting, extractor fan and RCD protection, installed and certified by a qualified electrician
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.

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.

Who handles building control for a bathroom renovation in Peacehaven?

Building control for Peacehaven is handled by the local council or an approved inspector. If your job needs sign-off — for example a new circuit, new drainage or a new extractor where there was none — we tell you at the survey and handle the notification as part of the work.

Can you renovate a bathroom in a listed building?

Yes, with listed building consent where the work affects the building's character. That can include removing original features, changing internal walls or running new soil and vent pipes through walls. Consent comes from the council and must be in place before work starts, so the design allows time for it.
