Working in Washwood Heath

We cover every part of Washwood Heath, including B8, B9 and B24, and nearby Aston (2.4 miles) and Birmingham (3.4 miles).

Homes in and around Washwood Heath vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. For homes in Washwood Heath 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. Whether your Washwood Heath bathroom is a compact box room or a larger main bathroom, the layout starts from measurements taken on site.

Water hardness varies across the West Midlands: some supplies are soft, others moderately hard or hard. 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
Layout options drawn to your room, including where the furniture run, bath or shower and towel rail will go
First and second-fix plumbing, including concealed cistern frames and new isolation valves
Supply of the suite, fitted furniture, worktop, brassware, tiles and accessories

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.

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.

Is the water hard in Washwood Heath?

Who handles building control for a fitted bathroom in Washwood Heath?

Building control for Washwood Heath 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.

Is fitted bathroom furniture waterproof?

Good fitted furniture uses moisture-resistant boards, sealed edges and a worktop sealed to the wall. It is designed for a bathroom, but standing water should still be wiped up. Ask for the carcass material and edge banding on the quote.
