Working in Littlehampton

As well as Littlehampton itself (BN17), we survey in Bognor Regis, Worthing and Lancing.

Homes in and around Littlehampton 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 Littlehampton, a separate strip-out gets the heavy work and the waste dealt with first. For Littlehampton homes built before 2000, we ask about textured ceilings and old floor tiles before quoting a strip-out.

Supplies across most of West Sussex 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

  • Removal of the bath or shower tray, enclosure, basin, WC, furniture and accessories
  • Dust sheets and floor protection on the route out through the house
  • Waste loaded and taken away by a licensed waste carrier
  • Isolating the water and capping the supply to each fitting with a proper end, then checking for leaks

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.

Is the water hard in Littlehampton?

What happens to the water and toilet during a strip-out?

The bathroom supplies are isolated and capped so the rest of the house keeps its water, and the soil pipe is sealed to stop smells. If there are no isolation valves, the water may be off to the whole house for a short time. If the bathroom has your only WC, raise it at the survey so the toilet comes out as late as possible.
