Working in Bridlington
We work right across Bridlington — YO15 and YO16 — and in neighbouring Scarborough and Beverley.
In Bridlington, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. Plumbing surveys in Bridlington include a look at the existing pipework for lead, corrosion or poor support before we quote. If your Bridlington bathroom layout is changing, the soil stack position is checked first, because it decides where the WC can go.
Water across much of the East Riding of Yorkshire is hard. Taps, plug wastes and toilet pans scale up quickly, so chrome copes better than matt black, and a removable aerator is worth having. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- The WC connected to the soil stack, or a new branch where the WC is moving
- Basin, bath and shower wastes sized and laid to a steady fall, with traps that hold their water seal
- A pressure test of new pipework before walls are closed in and floors go down
- A check of your hot water system, and the pressure and flow rate at the bathroom
Decisions to make first
Copper or plastic
Copper is rigid and suits pipes on show or near the boiler. Plastic is quicker under floors and inside walls, and long runs need fewer joints.
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 England
In England, the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999 apply. New drainage or a new connection to the soil stack can be building regulations work under Part H, and a macerator or pumped WC is acceptable only where there is also a WC on gravity drainage elsewhere in the home.
