Working in Rugby

As well as Rugby itself (CV21 and CV22), we survey in Daventry, Coventry and Bedworth.

Rugby has a wide mix of house ages, so the survey is where we spot old lead pipework, weak joists or a tight soil stack. In Rugby flats, the lease and the flat below are considered before a renovation is planned, particularly for moving the WC or adding a vent. For listed and period properties in Rugby, we check early whether listed building consent applies to the work you have in mind.

Most of Warwickshire 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

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

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.

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.

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 home survey in Rugby really free?

Do you cover CV21 and CV22 in Rugby?

Yes. We cover all of Rugby, including CV21 and CV22, and nearby Daventry, Coventry and Bedworth. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

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.
