Working in Buckley
In Buckley we cover CH5 and CH7; we also cover Hawarden, 2.7 miles away, and Deeside.
In Buckley, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. In Buckley flats, any change to the WC or wastes is planned with the lease and the flat below in mind. Plumbing surveys in Buckley include a look at the existing pipework for lead, corrosion or poor support before we quote.
Supplies across most of Clwyd are moderately hard. Taps and wastes will need an occasional descale, and chrome or brushed finishes are easier to keep clean than polished brass. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Shower pumps on gravity systems, and macerators or pumped wastes where gravity drainage cannot reach
- Isolation valves on every fitting, so taps, cisterns and valves can be serviced without draining the system
- The WC connected to the soil stack, or a new branch where the WC is moving
- A check of your hot water system, and the pressure and flow rate at the bathroom
Decisions to make first
Shower supply
Combi boilers and unvented cylinders give mains pressure. A gravity system with a cold tank may need a pump, but a pump must never be connected to the mains.
Hard water
In hard water areas, a scale reducer or water softener protects valves, shower heads and glass. Keep an unsoftened tap in the kitchen for drinking.
Rules that apply in Wales
Wales also uses the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999 and has its own Part H for drainage. The same rule on macerators applies: there must be a gravity-drained WC elsewhere in the home.
