Working in Seaford

As well as Seaford itself (BN25), we survey in Peacehaven, Rottingdean and Eastbourne.

Seaford gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. A renovation survey in Seaford looks behind the surfaces, at joists, pipework and wiring, before any figure is put on paper. In Seaford flats, the lease and the flat below are considered before a renovation is planned, particularly for moving the WC or adding a vent.

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

Strip-out back to brick or studwork, with waste taken away by a licensed waste carrier
Repairs to rotten floorboards, joists or other timber found once the room is open
New hot and cold pipework and wastes, with isolation valves to each fitting
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.

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.

What is the difference between a bathroom refit and a renovation?

A refit replaces the visible parts, the suite, tiles and floor, and keeps the pipework, wiring and walls behind them. A renovation strips the room to its structure and replaces those hidden services too, often with a new layout. It costs more and takes longer, but it deals with problems a refit would only cover up.
