Covering Heywood
We work in Heywood (OL10) and the places around it, including Middleton, Rochdale and Bury.
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?
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.
- Waterproofing (tanking) of wet areas
- Tiling, sanitaryware and brassware
- Extractor fan, lighting and heated towel rail

Planning and building rules in Heywood
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 Heywood homeowners check first?
- Low water pressure limits the choice of shower; a pump or unvented cylinder may be needed.
- Moving a toilet depends on the soil pipe route.
How does the project run?
- Send us the details. Give us a postcode, a rough idea of size and some photos, by phone, form or the guide price tool.
- Free site visit. We measure up, look at access, drains and the structure, and talk through options and budget.
- Price and paperwork. The design is priced line by line, and we submit the planning and building control applications.
- We build it. Work follows an agreed programme, with inspections at each stage and a final sign-off.
