Bathroom Renovation Potters Bar

A bathroom renovation is a services and waterproofing job with tiling on top of it. GS Renovation refits bathrooms in Potters Bar, including the drainage alterations and the making good, and coordinates building control where the work calls for it. Quotations are free and carry no obligation.

For Potters Bar, on London-derived ranges a full bathroom refit typically costs £6,000 to £20,000 or more; Hertfordshire work generally runs below that. GS Renovation Ltd, a building contractor based in Potters Bar, does the work in Potters Bar: we carry the tanking, plumbing and tiling as one contract, with the electrics certified by a registered electrician.

How the job runs

1. Free design visit at your Potters Bar home and an itemised quote.
2. Strip-out, then first-fix plumbing and electrics.
3. Tanking to the wet areas, then tiling.
4. Sanitaryware and second fix, with notifiable electrics certified by a registered electrician.

How a bathroom refit gets signed off

With a final inspection and a certificate. Hertfordshire Building Control asks that a final inspection is booked within five days of completion, and issues the completion certificate at no extra cost after a satisfactory inspection. We make that booking rather than leaving you to remember it once the tiler has gone.

The certificate is the record that the work was inspected. We hold the file open until it is issued, then hand it over with the rest of the paperwork at the end of the job.

Housing in Potters Bar

When work can start after a building notice

48 hours after the notice is received. That is the position Hertfordshire Building Control sets out for the building notice route, so the notice is the first thing in the diary rather than the last.

Not every bathroom needs one. New or altered drainage, electrical work and anything structural are the elements that bring building control in, and we tell you at the quotation stage which of them apply to your job.

The GS Renovation Difference in Potters Bar

Bathrooms fail at the parts nobody sees, so the order we hold to is services first, waterproofing second, tiling last. We carry out the drainage alterations and the making good ourselves, and coordinate the building control inspections where the work needs them, so there is no gap between the plumber and the tiler for you to manage.
