Working in Tadley

In Tadley we cover RG26; we also cover Basingstoke, 6.3 miles away, and Thatcham.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Tadley: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Tadley bathroom layout is changing, the soil stack position is checked first, because it decides where the WC can go. In Tadley flats, any change to the WC or wastes is planned with the lease and the flat below in mind.

Supplies across most of Hampshire 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
Isolation valves on every fitting, so taps, cisterns and valves can be serviced without draining the system
A check of your hot water system, and the pressure and flow rate at the bathroom
Basin, bath and shower wastes sized and laid to a steady fall, with traps that hold their water seal

Decisions to make first

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.

Concealed or exposed valves

Concealed shower valves look neater but need an access route for servicing. Exposed bar valves are easier to reach and replace.

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.
