Working in Morley

We cover every part of Morley, including LS11, LS27 and WF17, and nearby Batley (2.9 miles) and Dewsbury (3.6 miles).

In Morley, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If your Morley bathroom is upstairs, the stairs and landing are protected before anything heavy comes down. Landlords in Morley can book a strip-out to see the real condition of a damaged bathroom before choosing between a refit and a renovation.

Supplies across most of West Yorkshire are soft. 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

Dust sheets and floor protection on the route out through the house
The soil pipe sealed against smells once the WC is off
Lights, fan, shaver socket and heated rail disconnected and made safe by a qualified electrician where needed
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.

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.

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.
