Working in Crawley

We work right across Crawley — RH10 and RH11 — and in neighbouring Horley and Horsham.

Crawley has a wide mix of house ages, so the survey is where we spot old lead pipework, weak joists or a tight soil stack. For listed and period properties in Crawley, we check early whether listed building consent applies to the work you have in mind. If you have just bought a house in Crawley, renovating the bathroom before moving in saves living through the dust.

Most of West Sussex 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

Strip-out back to brick or studwork, with waste taken away by a licensed waste carrier
Tiling, fitting of the suite and furniture, making good and decorating, then handover
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

Decisions to make first

Heating

Moving the radiator, adding a heated towel rail or laying underfloor heating is simpler while the room is stripped.

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.

Bathroom renovation in Crawley: questions

What is the price of a bathroom renovation in Crawley?

A bathroom renovation in Crawley usually costs £8,400–£16,750 including VAT. Expect the lower end for a like-for-like job with standard products, and the upper end if things move or you choose premium finishes. Your quote is itemised and fixed in writing once agreed.

Is the water hard in Crawley?

Who handles building control for a bathroom renovation in Crawley?

Building control for Crawley is handled by the local council or an approved inspector. If your job needs sign-off — for example a new circuit, new drainage or a new extractor where there was none — we tell you at the survey and handle the notification as part of the work.

What is the difference between a bathroom refit and a renovation?

A refit replaces the visible parts, the suite, tiles and floor, and keeps the pipework, wiring and walls behind them. A renovation strips the room to its structure and replaces those hidden services too, often with a new layout. It costs more and takes longer, but it deals with problems a refit would only cover up.
