Working in Kempston

We work right across Kempston — MK42 — and in neighbouring Bedford and Ampthill.

Kempston gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. For homes in Kempston where the bathroom is the only one, we plan the work so the toilet is out of action for as short a time as possible. If you want to lose the bath and gain storage in your Kempston bathroom, we show you both options before you decide.

Water across much of Bedfordshire is very hard. 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

First and second-fix plumbing, including concealed cistern frames and new isolation valves
Electrical work by a qualified electrician: lighting, extractor fan, shaver socket or heating, tested and certified
Boarding, tanking in the wet areas, wall and floor tiling
A free home survey with measurements, photos and a check of your water pressure, drainage and ventilation

Decisions to make first

Tiling height

Tiling just the wet areas keeps the cost down. Full-height tiling looks better and is easier to wipe clean.

Furniture finish

Matt or gloss lacquer, wood-effect, painted shaker or handleless. Darker finishes hide marks; lighter ones make a small room feel bigger.

Rules that apply in England

In England, new circuits and most electrical changes in a bathroom are notifiable under Part P, so they must be done by an electrician registered with a competent person scheme or notified to building control. If you are adding a new extractor fan, Approved Document F gives 15 litres per second as the usual intermittent extract rate.

Who handles building control for a fitted bathroom in Kempston?

Building control for Kempston 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.

Do I need to be at home while the bathroom is fitted?

No, as long as we can get in each day and you are around at the start and at handover. You can give us a key or let us in each morning. We will need your water and power turned off at times, and we will tell you when.
