Bathroom replacement programmes in a social home

How do we deliver it?

We fit humidity-controlled extract ventilation as part of the renewal, because a new bathroom without effective extract is a future damp and mould call.

Which rules apply in Belfast?

Northern Ireland has its own asbestos regulations, the Control of Asbestos Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2012, enforced by HSENI. Asbestos information is checked before intrusive work, and licensed work is carried out only by licensed contractors.
