Working in Kettering

We cover every part of Kettering, including NN15 and NN16, and nearby Wellingborough (6.7 miles) and Corby (6.9 miles).

In Kettering, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If you want to lose the bath and gain storage in your Kettering bathroom, we show you both options before you decide. If your Kettering bathroom has pipes boxed in at odd angles, a fitted run is often the neatest way to hide them for good.

Supplies across most of Northamptonshire are 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

Layout options drawn to your room, including where the furniture run, bath or shower and towel rail will go
Supply of the suite, fitted furniture, worktop, brassware, tiles and accessories
Electrical work by a qualified electrician: lighting, extractor fan, shaver socket or heating, tested and certified
Strip-out of the old bathroom and removal of the waste

Decisions to make first

Bath, shower or both

Keep a bath for children or soaking, swap it for a walk-in shower if no one uses it, or plan both if the room is big enough.

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.

Who handles building control for a fitted bathroom in Kettering?

Building control for Kettering 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 Kettering.

Can I supply my own bathroom suite?

Yes. We can fit a suite you have already bought, and quote for the fitting only. We will check the product list at the survey, because missing parts, the wrong waste or an incompatible cistern are the usual causes of delays on fit-only jobs.
