Working in Kingston upon Hull
We work right across Kingston upon Hull — HU1, HU2 and HU3 — and in neighbouring Beverley and Brough.
In a city the size of Kingston upon Hull, parking and access for a skip are worth sorting before the start date — we will ask at the survey. If your Kingston upon Hull home has a gravity system with a loft tank, we check the head of water before recommending a shower or a pump. If your Kingston upon Hull water is hard, a scale reducer or softener on the bathroom supplies can protect valves and shower heads.
Supplies across most of the East Riding of Yorkshire are 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
- Shower pumps on gravity systems, and macerators or pumped wastes where gravity drainage cannot reach
- New hot and cold pipework in copper or plastic, properly clipped, and insulated where it runs through cold spaces
- The WC connected to the soil stack, or a new branch where the WC is moving
- A pressure test of new pipework before walls are closed in and floors go down
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.
Pipe routes
Drilling through the middle of joists, rather than notching the tops, keeps the floor strong. Routes are planned with the joist direction in mind.
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.
