What the job includes
- A survey of the structure and services: joists, walls, ceilings, pipework, wastes, wiring and ventilation
- Layout changes such as moved doors, new stud walls or boxing for concealed cisterns
- 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
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.
