What the job includes
- Strip-out back to brick or studwork, with waste taken away by a licensed waste carrier
- New hot and cold pipework and wastes, with isolation valves to each fitting
- Tiling, fitting of the suite and furniture, making good and decorating, then handover
- 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.
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.
