Working in Acocks Green
As well as Acocks Green itself (B25, B26 and B27), we survey in Shirley, Solihull and Washwood Heath.
Homes in and around Acocks Green vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. For listed and period properties in Acocks Green, we check early whether listed building consent applies to the work you have in mind. If your Acocks Green 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.
Hardness differs from one part of the West Midlands to the next. 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
- Tiling, fitting of the suite and furniture, making good and decorating, then handover
- 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
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.
Shower floor
With the floor already up, a renovation is the easiest time to form a level shower floor or a full wet room.
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.
