Working in Golborne

As well as Golborne itself (WA3, WA12 and WN4), we survey in Newton-le-Willows, Ashton in Makerfield and Leigh.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Golborne: free survey, written quote, one team. A renovation survey in Golborne looks behind the surfaces, at joists, pipework and wiring, before any figure is put on paper. If you have just bought a house in Golborne, renovating the bathroom before moving in saves living through the dust.

Supplies across most of Merseyside are soft. That leaves you free to choose matt black, brushed brass or clear glass without worrying much about limescale. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

A survey of the structure and services: joists, walls, ceilings, pipework, wastes, wiring and ventilation
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
Repairs to rotten floorboards, joists or other timber found once the room is open

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.

Shower floor

With the floor already up, a renovation is the easiest time to form a level shower floor or a full wet room.

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.

Do I need building regulations approval for a bathroom renovation?

Often, for parts of the job. New electrical circuits, new drainage or connections to the soil stack, and structural changes such as removing a wall can all be building regulations work. Replacing a suite in the same positions usually is not. We tell you which items apply to your job and who will notify them.
