Which options suit homes in Streetly?

Like-for-like refit

The new suite goes where the old one was, using the existing water and waste positions. It's the quickest and most affordable option, and it's often all a bathroom needs. Tiling, flooring, furniture and the shower choice can all change completely while the plumbing stays essentially the same.

Panels or tiles

Large-format tiles look smart but need flat walls, careful setting out and waterproofing in the shower area. Waterproof wall panels go up faster, have fewer grout lines and can be fitted over sound existing surfaces. Many bathrooms mix the two, with panels in the shower and tiles elsewhere to suit both budget and look.

Which postcodes in Streetly do you work in?

We cover B74 and the streets around them. If you're on the edge of Streetly, neighbouring Aldridge and Four Oaks are covered too.

What if it's our only bathroom?

We plan around it. The toilet can usually be refitted temporarily at the end of most days, or put back early in the programme, so you're not without one overnight. The shower and bath will be out of use for most of the job, so it's worth arranging somewhere to shower, with family or at a gym, for a week or so.

Who approves bathroom fitting in Streetly?

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