Do you need permission for bathroom installation in Comber?
Projects in Northern Ireland need planning clearance from one of the eleven councils and building control approval, also from the council. The Party Wall etc. Act does not extend to Northern Ireland, so work near neighbours is agreed directly and documented carefully.
Bathroom refits do not need planning permission; electrics and ventilation must meet building regulations.
What should Comber homeowners check first?
- 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.
- Free site visit. We measure up, look at access, drains and the structure, and talk through options and budget.
- Drawings, approvals, written quote. We prepare the design, apply for the approvals it needs, and give you a fixed price in writing.
- We build it. Work follows an agreed programme, with inspections at each stage and a final sign-off.
