Working in Southsea

We cover every part of Southsea, including PO1, PO4 and PO5, and nearby Portsmouth (1.1 miles) and Gosport (1.9 miles).

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Southsea: free survey, written quote, one team. We survey in Southsea before quoting, so the furniture run is planned around your actual walls, window and soil stack. If your Southsea bathroom has pipes boxed in at odd angles, a fitted run is often the neatest way to hide them for good.

Most of Hampshire has hard water. 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

Strip-out of the old bathroom and removal of the waste
Supply of the suite, fitted furniture, worktop, brassware, tiles and accessories
Fitting of the furniture, worktop, sanitaryware and glass, then silicone, testing and a clean handover
First and second-fix plumbing, including concealed cistern frames and new isolation valves

Decisions to make first

Worktop

Laminate is the budget choice, quartz-effect and solid surface resist water and stains, and a moulded basin-and-top in one piece has no joints to clean.

Wall-hung or floor-standing

Wall-hung units show more floor and look lighter; floor-standing units give more storage and suit uneven walls.

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.

More about fitted bathrooms

Fitted bathrooms in Southsea: questions

How much does a fitted bathroom cost in Southsea?

A fitted bathroom in Southsea usually costs £7,300–£13,500 including VAT. Expect the lower end for a like-for-like job with standard products, and the upper end if things move or you choose premium finishes. Your quote is itemised and fixed in writing once agreed.

Who handles building control for a fitted bathroom in Southsea?

Building control for Southsea 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.

How long does a fitted bathroom take?

Allow 6–10 working days on site for most jobs, plus the lead time for products after you approve the quote. We give you a day-by-day plan before work starts in Southsea.

Is the home survey in Southsea really free?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

Can I keep my bathroom layout to save money?

Yes. Keeping the WC on the same soil stack position and the bath or shower where it is now usually saves several hundred pounds in plumbing. A fitted furniture run can still change the look of the room completely without moving the main fittings.
