Working in Stratford-upon-Avon
As well as Stratford-upon-Avon itself (CV37), we survey in Warwick, Royal Leamington Spa and Kenilworth.
In Stratford-upon-Avon, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. We time strip-outs in Stratford-upon-Avon for just before the fit, so you are not left without a bathroom while waiting for products. For Stratford-upon-Avon homes built before 2000, we ask about textured ceilings and old floor tiles before quoting a strip-out.
Water across much of Warwickshire is 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
- Isolating the water and capping the supply to each fitting with a proper end, then checking for leaks
- Dust sheets and floor protection on the route out through the house
- 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
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.
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.
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.
