Working in Dungannon

We work right across Dungannon — BT68, BT69, BT70 and 1 more postcode districts — and in neighbouring Cookstown and Armagh.

Dungannon gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If you are fitting your own bathroom in Dungannon, a separate strip-out gets the heavy work and the waste dealt with first. We time strip-outs in Dungannon for just before the fit, so you are not left without a bathroom while waiting for products.

Most of County Tyrone is supplied with soft water. Soft water is kind to grout, so mid-tone and darker grouts stay looking fresh. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Waste loaded and taken away by a licensed waste carrier
Wall and floor tiles taken off with as little damage as possible to sound plaster
Dust sheets and floor protection on the route out through the house
Isolating the water and capping the supply to each fitting with a proper end, then checking for leaks

Decisions to make first

Asbestos testing

In a home built before 2000, a sample test before work starts settles whether a ceiling coating, floor tile or boxing panel needs specialist removal.

Strip-out only or with prep

Strip-out only leaves walls and floors as found. With prep, walls are boarded or patched and the floor checked and overlaid, ready for fitting.

Rules that apply in Northern Ireland

In Northern Ireland, stripping out is not controlled work, but alterations that follow to drainage, structure or ventilation go through building control. The same asbestos and waste precautions apply.

Does a bathroom strip-out in Dungannon need building control approval?

How do you get a cast-iron bath out?

A cast-iron bath can weigh well over 100 kg, so it is usually broken up in place with the room protected, unless you want to keep it. Taking one out whole needs several people, a clear route and care on the stairs. Tell us at the survey if you want it saved.
