Working in Smethwick

As well as Smethwick itself (B21, B66 and B67), we survey in West Bromwich, Birmingham and Aston.

Homes in and around Smethwick vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If you want to lose the bath and gain storage in your Smethwick bathroom, we show you both options before you decide. For homes in Smethwick 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.

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

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
Strip-out of the old bathroom and removal of the waste

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.

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.

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.

Is the water hard in Smethwick?

Who handles building control for a fitted bathroom in Smethwick?

Building control for Smethwick 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 do you get to the cistern behind fitted furniture?

Concealed cisterns are reached through the flush plate opening or a removable panel in the WC unit. We fit an isolation valve so the cistern can be serviced without draining the system.
