Moving a Bathroom to a New Room in Trentham
Full bathroom installations, project-managed by one local team.
Moving a bathroom is a bigger job than replacing one. In a Trentham house you're re-planning the soil route, likely strengthening joists under a new tray or bath, and rebuilding the sub-floor of the room the bathroom is leaving as well as the one it's arriving in.
We plan the whole thing — new stack tie-in, waste falls, joist doublings, ventilation route — before the first board comes off, so the sequence runs cleanly and the notifiable work goes through Building Control the right way.
Most of our bathroom fitting jobs in Trentham begin with a slow walk round the house, not a quote on the doorstep.
Bathroom Relocation Service FAQs — Trentham
- Do I need Building Regs to move a bathroom in Trentham?
- Yes, notifiable work applies — new drainage runs, structural notching and ventilation all need to be signed off. We handle notification on Trentham projects.
- How far can a WC waste run?
- Effectively 6m at 1:80 fall for a 100mm waste with proper venting on a Trentham first-floor relocation. Beyond that we look at repositioning the stack or fitting a macerator.
- Can you rebuild the old bathroom as a bedroom?
- Yes — cap and remove services, sister the joists where the old bath sat, floor over, plaster and skim. That's a full second phase on most Trentham relocations.
- How long does a bathroom move take?
- Typically 12–18 working days across the two rooms on a Trentham project, running strip-out on room A while new services go in room B.
- Are you fully insured for work in Trentham?
- Yes — we hold full public liability cover and every job in Trentham comes with a written workmanship guarantee.
- How quickly can you start a job in Trentham?
- Lead time is usually two to five weeks from a confirmed quote, depending on the spec and our current schedule across the Staffordshire side.
