Working in Thornton-Cleveleys

We work right across Thornton-Cleveleys — FY2, FY5 and FY6 — and in neighbouring Poulton-le-Fylde and Fleetwood.

Homes in and around Thornton-Cleveleys vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. For Thornton-Cleveleys homes built before 2000, we ask about textured ceilings and old floor tiles before quoting a strip-out. Strip-outs in Thornton-Cleveleys include the waste going away with a licensed carrier, so nothing is left on the drive or the pavement.

Supplies across most of Lancashire are soft. 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

  • A note of what was found: floor and wall condition, pipe runs and any damaged timber
  • Lights, fan, shaver socket and heated rail disconnected and made safe by a qualified electrician where needed
  • Removal of the bath or shower tray, enclosure, basin, WC, furniture and accessories
  • The soil pipe sealed against smells once the WC is off

Decisions to make first

Timing

Strip out just before the fit rather than weeks ahead, so the house is without a bathroom for as short a time as possible.

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.

How do you get a cast-iron bath out?
