What do we cover in Rother?
- Survey, layout and resident choice within your specification
- Strip-out, asbestos checks and waste removal
- Baths, showers, basins and WCs, including thermostatic showers
- Humidity-controlled extract fans
- Electrical work in special locations, certified and notified where required
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.

Under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, the presence of asbestos must be assessed (or presumed) before work that could disturb it, and a refurbishment and demolition survey is needed before intrusive work in buildings built or refurbished before 2000.
