Local knowledge

What Are Ollerton Homes Like to Renovate?

Ollerton is really two places. Old Ollerton, around the watermill and the River Maun, is a small historic village of period brick property. New Ollerton was built from the 1920s for the colliery, a planned grid of terraced and semi-detached housing extended after the war, with Boughton alongside.

What Do Ollerton Homeowners Ask Us For Most?

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

  • Strip-out rather than refit in the colliery housing, which is nearly always the honest answer
  • Separate WCs opened into the main bathroom to make one proper room
  • Small rear kitchens replanned with units made to fit
  • Refurbishment between tenancies delivered against a fixed date

Before we start in Ollerton

Old Ollerton or New Ollerton: what changes before the job starts?

Both halves of Ollerton sit in Newark and Sherwood District, so notifiable work goes through Newark and Sherwood District Council's building control. Some older property in Old Ollerton may have extra protections, and if yours does, it is worth checking what needs consent before anything is designed. We check the council's records at the first visit rather than rely on what a previous owner remembered.

New Ollerton is a different job logistically. Many of the older planned streets rely on on-street parking, so a skip there usually goes on the highway under a Nottinghamshire County Council permit, which the skip hire firm applies for once we give them a date. Barbers Bathrooms & Kitchens also allows for the Ollerton roundabout, where the A614 meets the A616 and traffic can back up at busy times, when we set delivery slots. Inside, the colliery houses tend to have compact landings and tight turns on the stairs, so we check whether a one-piece bath or shower tray will make the turn before ordering it.

Good to know

Frequently Asked Questions — Ollerton

Do you cover New Ollerton and Boughton as well as the old village?
Yes, we work across the whole of Ollerton and Boughton. Most of our work is in the twentieth-century colliery housing, which is the same stock we work in daily around Shirebrook and Warsop, so the scope is familiar and quoting is accurate. Old Ollerton produces a different sort of job — sympathetic work on older property — and we take on both.
Can you fit a bathroom in an older Old Ollerton property?
Yes. Older property here means solid walls, uneven floors, low ceilings in places and bathrooms formed in rooms that were originally something else. Services have to be chased or boxed rather than run through a cavity, and joinery has to be made to fit rather than bought. That combination is exactly why having a joiner on the same team matters in this housing.
Our New Ollerton house was built for the colliery. Should we worry about movement?
It is worth being aware of rather than worried about. Houses across the old coalfield sometimes show historic movement as floors that fall away or door heads out of level, and that affects how tiles and fittings are set out. We check levels across the room at survey in New Ollerton, and if cracking looks active rather than historic we say so and suggest having it assessed before a new bathroom goes in.
Does an Old Ollerton cottage need a different approach to the extractor fan?
Not a different fan, but often a different route. Where the obvious outlet would go through a street-facing wall, we look at whether another route would suit the house better. In older solid-walled property the fan matters more than usual, because damp air that cannot escape will settle on the coldest wall, and in Old Ollerton that is often the one you least want marked.
