Working in Tottenham
We work right across Tottenham — N6, N8, N10 and 3 more postcode districts — and in neighbouring Edmonton and Wood Green.
In Tottenham, many bathrooms are in flats or converted houses, so we check lease consents, access and the floor below before we price. For Tottenham homes on a combi boiler, we measure the flow rate at the bathroom before you choose a shower valve. In Tottenham flats, any change to the WC or wastes is planned with the lease and the flat below in mind.
Supplies across most of Greater London are very 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
- Isolation valves on every fitting, so taps, cisterns and valves can be serviced without draining the system
- A pressure test of new pipework before walls are closed in and floors go down
- Basin, bath and shower wastes sized and laid to a steady fall, with traps that hold their water seal
- New hot and cold pipework in copper or plastic, properly clipped, and insulated where it runs through cold spaces
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.
Gravity or pumped waste
Gravity drainage is always the first choice. A shower waste pump or macerator solves a run that cannot fall, but adds noise, a power supply and servicing.
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.
