Working in Oswestry

As well as Oswestry itself (SY11), we survey in Shrewsbury, Wellington and Telford.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Oswestry: free survey, written quote, one team. In Oswestry flats, the lease and the flat below are considered before a renovation is planned, particularly for moving the WC or adding a vent. Whether your Oswestry bathroom needs a refresh or a full strip back to brick, the written quote shows both where both are realistic.

Water across much of Shropshire is moderately hard. Easy-clean glass and good-quality brassware are money well spent. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

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
Layout changes such as moved doors, new stud walls or boxing for concealed cisterns

Decisions to make first

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.

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.

Is the water hard in Oswestry?

What problems are found when a bathroom is stripped out?

The usual ones are rotten floorboards or joists around the WC and bath, old lead or corroded pipework, joists notched too deeply for pipes, plaster that has come away from the wall and circuits without RCD protection. In homes built before 2000, asbestos can turn up in textured ceiling coatings, old floor tiles, cistern lids or boxing panels.
