Covering Congleton
Congleton is about 28 miles east of Chester. We also cover Kidsgrove (5 miles to the south), Macclesfield and Crewe.
Homes in the North West
The North West has long rows of Victorian terraced houses in its towns and cities, alongside inter-war semis and post-war estates, so rear extensions, dormer lofts and kitchen extensions are common projects.
What goes into bathroom installation?
Most bathroom problems come from poor waterproofing and ventilation, so we tank wet areas, fit extraction that actually clears steam, and check water pressure before choosing showers. All electrics in bathrooms are done to the special-location rules.
- Design and layout
- Strip-out and disposal
- Waterproofing (tanking) of wet areas

Planning and building rules in Congleton
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.
What should Congleton 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 happens after I enquire?
- Send us the details. Give us a postcode, a rough idea of size and some photos, by phone, form or the guide price tool.
- Survey at your house. We look at the existing structure, services and access, and agree what the design needs to achieve.
- 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.
