Leicester bathroom-refit context
Bathroom work can involve several Building Regulations topics at once
A cosmetic refit is different from moving wastes, adding ventilation, altering electrics or changing structure. Leicester's Building Control guidance covers drainage, ventilation, electrical work, moisture and other safety issues that can sit behind the visible bathroom finish.
Building Regulations cover drainage, ventilation and domestic electrical work
Leicester City Council's housing design guidance lists drainage, ventilation, moisture resistance, sanitary conveniences and electrical work among the subjects covered by Building Regulations. Ask which elements of the bathroom project require notification or competent-person certification.

HMO management includes shared facilities and communal areas
Leicester's HMO guidance says landlords of licensed HMOs must keep shared facilities and communal areas adequate, clean and in good repair. For a bathroom job in a shared property, identify the occupancy and management context before agreeing downtime and access.

Layout changes are not the same as a like-for-like refit. Moving a WC, shower, basin, walls or electrical points can expand the regulated and technical scope significantly.

Clarify extractor requirements and how moisture will be removed during normal use.
Identify regulated work
