Working in Yateley

We cover every part of Yateley, including GU46, and nearby Sandhurst (1.9 miles) and Crowthorne (2.5 miles).

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Yateley: free survey, written quote, one team. Plumbing surveys in Yateley include a look at the existing pipework for lead, corrosion or poor support before we quote. If your Yateley water is hard, a scale reducer or softener on the bathroom supplies can protect valves and shower heads.

Water across much of Hampshire 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

A check of your hot water system, and the pressure and flow rate at the bathroom
New hot and cold pipework in copper or plastic, properly clipped, and insulated where it runs through cold spaces
Basin, bath and shower wastes sized and laid to a steady fall, with traps that hold their water seal
Shower pumps on gravity systems, and macerators or pumped wastes where gravity drainage cannot reach

Decisions to make first

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.

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.

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.
