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. Whether your West Bromwich bathroom is a narrow galley or a square main room, we show you whether a separate shower would fit before you decide. If your West Bromwich 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.
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
- A free home survey covering room sizes, the soil stack position, your boiler or cylinder type and water pressure
- 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
Screen or curtain
Glass keeps water in better than a curtain and does not go mouldy at the hem. A folding or hinged screen swings out of the way when you are kneeling to bath a child.
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.
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.
