Working in Great Yarmouth
We work right across Great Yarmouth — NR29, NR30 and NR31 — and in neighbouring Norwich and East Dereham.
Homes in and around Great Yarmouth vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. In Great Yarmouth flats, any change to the WC or wastes is planned with the lease and the flat below in mind. For Great Yarmouth homes on a combi boiler, we measure the flow rate at the bathroom before you choose a shower valve.
Supplies across most of Norfolk 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
- The WC connected to the soil stack, or a new branch where the WC is moving
- Draining down and isolating supplies, with the rest of the house back on water as soon as possible
- A pressure test of new pipework before walls are closed in and floors go down
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.
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.
