Local knowledge

What Are Chesterfield Homes Like to Renovate?

Chesterfield is dominated by twentieth-century housing. Newbold, Brampton, Hasland, Walton, Whittington Moor and Old Whittington hold an enormous quantity of 1950s to 1970s semis and short terraces, with older Victorian terracing nearer the centre and newer estates around the edges.

What Do Chesterfield Homeowners Ask Us For Most?

These are the jobs Barbers Bathrooms & Kitchens is asked to do most often in Chesterfield:

  • Complete bathroom strip-outs in post-war semis, done properly rather than freshened up
  • Kitchen replacement, usually following a year or two later
  • Artex ceilings skimmed throughout the house as a plastering job in its own right
  • Alcove joinery and made-to-fit units in the older Brampton and Ashgate terraces

Before we start in Chesterfield

Borough or county: which Chesterfield council deals with what?

Chesterfield splits its paperwork between two councils, which catches people out. Building control for notifiable work, such as a structural opening or new drainage, is run by Chesterfield Borough Council, but the roads belong to Derbyshire County Council, so a skip on the street outside a Brampton or Whittington Moor terrace is permitted by the county, not the borough. Barbers Bathrooms & Kitchens deals with both, and we check at survey whether the skip can go on a drive instead, which avoids the permit altogether.

The town centre around the church with the crooked spire is a conservation area, and a number of older buildings in and near it are listed. For an ordinary house inside the boundary, internal work goes ahead as normal and the questions are about the outside: vents, flues and anything visible from the street. For a listed building it is different, because even internal alterations can need listed building consent, and we do not start until that is settled. Further out in the suburbs the conservation question rarely comes up at all.

Frequently Asked Questions — Chesterfield

Can you skim over artex ceilings throughout a Chesterfield house?
Yes, and it is a regular request in the post-war housing here. Artex can be skimmed provided it is stabilised properly first — scraped back where heavily textured and sealed with a bonding agent so the finish plaster has something reliable to key to. Skimming straight over artex without that preparation is the most common cause of cracking a year later. Where the artex is very heavy, overboarding is the better answer and we will say so.
Do you cover Newbold, Brampton, Hasland and Walton?
Yes, we work across all the Chesterfield suburbs. Most of our work here is in the 1950s to 1970s semi-detached housing that dominates those areas, where a bathroom or kitchen replacement is a well-understood job for us. There is no travel charge anywhere in Chesterfield — it is comfortably inside our 30-mile area.
Can you skim over the artex in our Chesterfield semi?
Usually, yes. Older textured ceilings are common in the 1950s to 1970s housing that makes up so much of Chesterfield, and the right approach depends on the age and condition of what is there. We look at it at survey and talk through the options before anything is disturbed.
How do you get a new suite into a Chesterfield terrace with no usable rear access?
Through the house, with the route protected before anything else happens. Hallway floors are covered, and the old suite comes out in pieces rather than in one lump, which is kinder to door frames and plaster. In the older terraces nearer the town centre, where the front door opens straight onto the pavement, we also time heavy deliveries so nothing sits on the footway longer than it has to.
