Bathroom, Kitchen & Joinery Fitters in Edwinstowe

Does the Edwinstowe conservation area change what we can do?

Edwinstowe is in Newark and Sherwood District, so notifiable building work here is signed off by Newark and Sherwood District Council's building control rather than Mansfield's. The historic centre around St Mary's church and the High Street is a conservation area. That rarely touches a kitchen or bathroom inside the house, but it does cover external flues and vents, and trees within it are protected, so a branch in the way of a delivery cannot simply be cut back without notifying the council first.

The High Street can also be busy with people heading for the forest, especially on summer weekends and in school holidays, so we book larger deliveries for weekday mornings where we can. At the bigger detached houses on the forest side, access is rarely the problem, and the survey time goes elsewhere: how the joinery will meet ceilings and window reveals, how far an island's power and water have to travel under the floor, and whether the existing boiler can support an extra bathroom. Barbers Bathrooms & Kitchens measures all of it before a drawing is started.
