Working in Sutton in Ashfield
We cover every part of Sutton in Ashfield, including NG15 and NG17, and nearby Kirkby in Ashfield (1.9 miles) and Mansfield (2.6 miles).
Homes in and around Sutton in Ashfield vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If you are fitting your own bathroom in Sutton in Ashfield, a separate strip-out gets the heavy work and the waste dealt with first. For Sutton in Ashfield homes built before 2000, we ask about textured ceilings and old floor tiles before quoting a strip-out.
Most of Nottinghamshire 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
- Wall and floor tiles taken off with as little damage as possible to sound plaster
- A note of what was found: floor and wall condition, pipe runs and any damaged timber
- The soil pipe sealed against smells once the WC is off
- Removal of the bath or shower tray, enclosure, basin, WC, furniture and accessories
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.
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.
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.
