Working in Birmingham

We cover every part of Birmingham, including B1, B2, B3 and 39 more postcode districts, and nearby Smethwick (2.9 miles) and West Bromwich (4.7 miles).

In a city the size of Birmingham, parking and access for a skip are worth sorting before the start date — we will ask at the survey. For homes in Birmingham 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 your Birmingham bathroom has pipes boxed in at odd angles, a fitted run is often the neatest way to hide them for good.

Supplies across the West Midlands range from soft to hard depending on the source. 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

Boarding, tanking in the wet areas, wall and floor tiling
Electrical work by a qualified electrician: lighting, extractor fan, shaver socket or heating, tested and certified
First and second-fix plumbing, including concealed cistern frames and new isolation valves
Layout options drawn to your room, including where the furniture run, bath or shower and towel rail will go

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.

Tiling height

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

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.

Fitted bathrooms in Birmingham: questions

How much does a fitted bathroom cost in Birmingham?

A fitted bathroom in Birmingham usually costs £6,400–£11,750 including VAT. The final figure comes down to what you choose and what we find at the survey; your written quote lists every item so you can see where the money goes.

Is the water hard in Birmingham?

Who handles building control for a fitted bathroom in Birmingham?

Building control for Birmingham 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.

What is the difference between a fitted bathroom and a normal bathroom?

In a fitted bathroom the basin, WC and storage are built into one continuous run of furniture, with the cistern and pipes hidden behind panels and a worktop across the top. A standard bathroom uses separate pieces, such as a pedestal basin and close-coupled toilet, which leave gaps and visible pipework.
