Working in Aston
As well as Aston itself (B6, B7 and B19), we survey in Birmingham, Washwood Heath and Smethwick.
Homes in and around Aston vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If your Aston home has just one bathroom, we plan the fit so the toilet is working again at the end of each day wherever the job allows. We survey in Aston before quoting, so the bath, shower and storage are planned around your actual walls, window and soil stack.
Water hardness varies across the West Midlands: some supplies are soft, others moderately hard or 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 of the old suite and tiles, with the waste taken away by a licensed waste carrier
- A free home survey covering room sizes, the soil stack position, your boiler or cylinder type and water pressure
- Lights, extractor fan and towel rail wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
- New pipework, wastes and isolation valves, plus a thermostatic shower valve so the temperature holds when someone runs a tap
Decisions to make first
Floor
Matt or textured porcelain is the hardest-wearing option. Luxury vinyl tile (LVT) is warmer, quieter and cheaper to lay. Avoid polished tiles where children climb out of the bath.
Shower over the bath or separate
A shower over the bath with a fixed or hinged screen is the most space-efficient. A separate enclosure needs roughly another square metre of floor but means the bath queue no longer holds up the shower queue.
Rules that apply in England
In England, any new circuit, or any change to the wiring in a room with a bath or shower, is notifiable under Part P. Part G limits the hot water at a new bath to 48 °C only in a new dwelling or one created by change of use; it does not apply to a replacement bath in an existing house, but a thermostatic valve is a sensible choice where children bathe.
