Working in Bradford

We cover every part of Bradford, including BD1, BD3 and BD5, and nearby Pudsey (3.7 miles) and Cleckheaton (5.1 miles).

Bradford is a big place with every kind of home, from terraces to flats to new builds, so we never price from a photo alone. Landlords in Bradford can book a strip-out to see the real condition of a damaged bathroom before choosing between a refit and a renovation. For Bradford homes built before 2000, we ask about textured ceilings and old floor tiles before quoting a strip-out.

Most of West Yorkshire is supplied with soft water. Soft water is kind to grout, so mid-tone and darker grouts stay looking fresh. 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
The soil pipe sealed against smells once the WC is off
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

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.

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.

Is there asbestos in my bathroom?

If your home was built before 2000, there may be. The likely places are textured ceiling coatings, old floor tiles, cistern lids and boxing panels. You cannot tell by looking, so a sample test before strip-out is the safe way to find out. If asbestos is found, a specialist deals with it before the rest of the work goes ahead.
