Working in Longton
We cover every part of Longton, including ST3, ST4 and ST12, and nearby Stoke-on-Trent (2.6 miles) and Newcastle under Lyme (4.3 miles).
Homes in and around Longton vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. For loft rooms and sloping ceilings in Longton homes, the design checks head height where you stand, not just the floor area. A design survey in Longton covers drainage, supplies, electrics and ventilation, so nothing on the drawing is guesswork.
Most of Staffordshire has moderately hard water. Easy-clean glass and good-quality brassware are money well spent. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Elevations and tile layouts on a design, supply and fit project, so the setting-out is agreed before tiling starts
- A measured survey of the room, including ceiling heights, slopes, window and door positions and any boxing
- A lighting and electrical plan showing switches, fittings, shaver socket and extractor fan
- Checks on the soil stack, waste routes, joist direction, water pressure, hot water system and existing electrics
Decisions to make first
Keep or change the layout
Keeping the WC and shower where they are saves on plumbing. The WC is the costly one to move, because it is tied to the soil stack.
Where the shower goes
A shower on an outside wall is easier to ventilate; one under a sloping ceiling needs full head height where you stand, not just at the high side.
Rules that apply in England
In England, a new connection to the soil stack or new drainage can be building regulations work under Part H, and new circuits or alterations to circuits in the bathroom are notifiable under Part P. Where a new bathroom is formed, Approved Document F asks for extract at 15 l/s intermittent or 8 l/s continuous.
