Working in West Bridgford
As well as West Bridgford itself (NG2), we survey in Nottingham, Arnold and Long Eaton.
In West Bridgford, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If your West Bridgford bathroom is upstairs, the stairs and landing are protected before anything heavy comes down. We time strip-outs in West Bridgford for just before the fit, so you are not left without a bathroom while waiting for products.
Supplies across most of Nottinghamshire are hard. 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
- Waste loaded and taken away by a licensed waste carrier
- 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
- The soil pipe sealed against smells once the WC is off
Decisions to make first
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.
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.
