Covering Bartley Green
We work in Bartley Green (B32, B62) and the places around it, including Halesowen, Smethwick and Birmingham.
Homes in the West Midlands
Red-brick terraces and inter-war semis make up much of the housing in the West Midlands, which suits rear extensions, dormer lofts and hip-to-gable conversions, with more modern estates on the edges of the towns.
What is included in bathroom installation in Bartley Green?
Bathroom installation covers stripping out the old suite, altering plumbing and wiring, waterproofing, tiling, and fitting the new bath, shower, toilet, basin and heated towel rail. We also build new en-suites and shower rooms in lofts and extensions.
- Plumbing and waste alterations
- Waterproofing (tanking) of wet areas
- Extractor fan, lighting and heated towel rail
What will bathroom installation cost?
Use these ranges to budget for bathrooms and en-suites; the survey turns them into a fixed price for the agreed specification.
| Bathrooms and en-suites | Guide price incl. VAT |
|---|---|
| En-suite or shower room | £5,500 to £10,000 |
| Family bathroom refit | £7,000 to £12,000 |
| Premium bathroom or wet room | £12,000 to £20,000 |
What approvals does bathroom installation need in England?
In England we deal with the council’s planning team for permission or a lawful development certificate, with building control (the council or a registered building control approver) for inspections, and with neighbours under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 where it applies.
Bathroom refits do not need planning permission. Electrical work in bathrooms is notifiable in many cases, and new bathrooms need ventilation that meets building regulations.
What should I think about before starting?
- Low water pressure limits the choice of shower; a pump or unvented cylinder may be needed.
- Large-format tiles need flat walls, which may mean re-boarding.
What are the steps?
- Tell us about the project. Call, use the guide price tool or send the form with a few photos and a postcode.
- We visit and measure. A surveyor checks the house, the boundaries and the ground, and discusses what is realistic.
- Price and paperwork. The design is priced line by line, and we submit the planning and building control applications.
- Build and hand over. Our teams build to the programme, building control inspects, and you get the completion paperwork at the end.
