Bathroom fitting in Hall Green

Before your new bathroom in Hall Green

Work like this in Hall Green rarely needs planning permission, but parts of the job must meet Building Regulations — certified electrical work, ventilation or energy-efficiency standards, for example. Your quote shows how each part is signed off. If planning does come into it, say for a listed building, Birmingham City Council is the authority.

Moving the toilet is the hardest change, because its waste pipe needs a direct route and fall to the soil stack.
Combi boilers and unvented cylinders usually support a good mixer shower without a pump.
Where there's no openable window, the fan should run on for around 15 minutes after the light goes off.

Which options suit homes in Hall Green?

Walk-in shower instead of a bath

Replacing the bath with a large low-profile tray and a glass panel makes the room feel bigger and is easier to step into. The waste needs a suitable fall, which can be tricky on timber floors, so the tray position and height are planned carefully. It's worth thinking about whether you'll want a bath when you sell.

Layout change

Moving the toilet, bath or shower can make a small bathroom work much better. The toilet is the hardest to move because its large waste pipe needs a direct route and fall to the soil stack. Water supplies and smaller wastes are easier to reroute, especially under timber floors, where joists can be drilled within safe limits.

What guarantees come with a new bathroom?

Baths, trays, toilets, taps, showers and furniture carry manufacturers' guarantees, and their terms are set out in your quote. Some shower manufacturers ask for an annual service or a registration after installation, and we'll tell you if yours does. You'll receive the electrical certificate for any notifiable work. If anything we fitted isn't right, call us.

Does Birmingham City Council need to approve my new bathroom?

You won't usually need planning permission, but the work must meet Building Regulations. Building control in Hall Green is provided by Birmingham City Council or a registered building control approver, and some work is self-certified by registered installers.
