Working in West Bromwich

As well as West Bromwich itself (B43, B64, B65 and 8 more postcode districts), we survey in Smethwick, Wednesbury and Tipton.

Across a large town like West Bromwich, homes range from older terraces to newer estates; the survey tells us which pipework and floor we are dealing with. If you have just bought a house in West Bromwich, renovating the bathroom before moving in saves living through the dust. In West Bromwich flats, the lease and the flat below are considered before a renovation is planned, particularly for moving the WC or adding a vent.

Supplies across the West Midlands range from soft to hard depending on the source. 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
  • New wiring, lighting, extractor fan and RCD protection, installed and certified by a qualified electrician
  • A survey of the structure and services: joists, walls, ceilings, pipework, wastes, wiring and ventilation
  • Strip-out back to brick or studwork, with waste taken away by a licensed waste carrier

Decisions to make first

Combining rooms

Taking out the wall between a bathroom and a separate WC gives one larger room, but it is structural work and may need building control.

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.
