Working in South Hayling
As well as South Hayling itself (PO11), we survey in Hayling Island, Emsworth and Havant.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in South Hayling: free survey, written quote, one team. For South Hayling homes built before 2000, we ask about textured ceilings and old floor tiles before quoting a strip-out. If you are fitting your own bathroom in South Hayling, a separate strip-out gets the heavy work and the waste dealt with first.
Most of Hampshire has hard water. Hard water leaves white marks on dark grout and gloss tiles, so matt finishes and stain-resistant grout are the practical choice. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- The soil pipe sealed against smells once the WC is off
- Lights, fan, shaver socket and heated rail disconnected and made safe by a qualified electrician where needed
- 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
Decisions to make first
The floor
Old vinyl or tiles on a ply overlay can come up with the ply. Tiles bonded to a screed may need grinding back or overlaying instead.
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 England
In England, stripping out a bathroom does not need planning permission or building regulations approval in itself. Building regulations come in with what follows, such as new drainage under Part H or new circuits under Part P.
