Working in South Croydon
We work right across South Croydon — CR0, CR2 and CR9 — and in neighbouring Croydon and Purley.
In South Croydon, many bathrooms are in flats or converted houses, so we check lease consents, access and the floor below before we price. For listed and period properties in South Croydon, we check early whether listed building consent applies to the work you have in mind. If you have just bought a house in South Croydon, renovating the bathroom before moving in saves living through the dust.
Most of Greater London has very 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 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
- A survey of the structure and services: joists, walls, ceilings, pipework, wastes, wiring and ventilation
- Strip-out back to brick or studwork, with waste taken away by a licensed waste carrier
Decisions to make first
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.
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.
