Working in Market Harborough
As well as Market Harborough itself (LE16), we survey in Corby, Kettering and Wigston Magna.
Market Harborough gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If you have just bought a house in Market Harborough, renovating the bathroom before moving in saves living through the dust. If your Market Harborough home is older and the bathroom still has original pipework or plaster behind the tiles, the survey shows whether a renovation or a refit makes more sense.
Most of Northamptonshire 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
- 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
- Layout changes such as moved doors, new stud walls or boxing for concealed cisterns
- Tiling, fitting of the suite and furniture, making good and decorating, then handover
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.
Heating
Moving the radiator, adding a heated towel rail or laying underfloor heating is simpler while the room is stripped.
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.
