Working in Kidderminster
As well as Kidderminster itself (DY10 and DY11), we survey in Stourport-on-Severn, Stourbridge and Kingswinford.
In Kidderminster, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If your Kidderminster 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. For listed and period properties in Kidderminster, we check early whether listed building consent applies to the work you have in mind.
Water across much of Worcestershire is moderately hard. 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
- Strip-out back to brick or studwork, with waste taken away by a licensed waste carrier
- New hot and cold pipework and wastes, with isolation valves to each fitting
- Repairs to rotten floorboards, joists or other timber found once the room is open
- Layout changes such as moved doors, new stud walls or boxing for concealed cisterns
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.
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.
