Working in Sutton Coldfield
We cover every part of Sutton Coldfield, including B72, B73 and B75, and nearby Washwood Heath (4.6 miles) and Aldridge (5 miles).
Across a large town like Sutton Coldfield, homes range from older terraces to newer estates; the survey tells us which pipework and floor we are dealing with. We survey in Sutton Coldfield before quoting, so the bath, shower and storage are planned around your actual walls, window and soil stack. If you have young children at home in Sutton Coldfield, we can talk through a bath that is easy to lean over, a slip-resistant floor and high-level storage.
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
- New pipework, wastes and isolation valves, plus a thermostatic shower valve so the temperature holds when someone runs a tap
- Wall and floor tiling, with a floor finish chosen to grip under wet feet
- Strip-out of the old suite and tiles, with the waste taken away by a licensed waste carrier
- Moisture-resistant boarding and tanking around the bath and shower before any tiling
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.
Storage
A vanity under the basin, a tall unit or a mirror cabinet. High-level or lockable storage keeps medicines and cleaning products out of reach of small children.
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.
