Working in Burton upon Trent
We cover every part of Burton upon Trent, including DE14 and DE15, and nearby Swadlincote (4.2 miles) and Derby (10.6 miles).
Across a large town like Burton upon Trent, homes range from older terraces to newer estates; the survey tells us which pipework and floor we are dealing with. If you are fitting your own bathroom in Burton upon Trent, a separate strip-out gets the heavy work and the waste dealt with first. We time strip-outs in Burton upon Trent for just before the fit, so you are not left without a bathroom while waiting for products.
Supplies across most of Staffordshire are moderately hard. Mid-tone grout and matt tiles hide the odd water mark better than dark grout and high gloss. 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
- Removal of the bath or shower tray, enclosure, basin, WC, furniture and accessories
- Isolating the water and capping the supply to each fitting with a proper end, then checking for leaks
- A note of what was found: floor and wall condition, pipe runs and any damaged timber
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.
Salvage
If you want to keep a cast-iron bath, a radiator or a piece of furniture, say so before we start, so it comes out whole rather than in pieces.
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.
