Working in Wigston Magna
As well as Wigston Magna itself (LE2, LE8 and LE18), we survey in Oadby, Leicester and Earl Shilton.
Homes in and around Wigston Magna vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. Whether your Wigston Magna bathroom needs a refresh or a full strip back to brick, the written quote shows both where both are realistic. For listed and period properties in Wigston Magna, we check early whether listed building consent applies to the work you have in mind.
Supplies across most of Leicestershire are hard. 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
- Tiling, fitting of the suite and furniture, making good and decorating, then handover
- New hot and cold pipework and wastes, with isolation valves to each fitting
Decisions to make first
Combining rooms
Taking out the wall between a bathroom and a separate WC gives one larger room, but it is structural work and may need building control.
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.
