Working in Blairgowrie and Rattray
We cover every part of Blairgowrie and Rattray, including PH10, and nearby Perth (14 miles) and Dundee (16.3 miles).
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Blairgowrie and Rattray: free survey, written quote, one team. In Blairgowrie and Rattray flats, any change to the WC or wastes is planned with the title deeds and the flat below in mind. If your Blairgowrie and Rattray water is hard, a scale reducer or softener on the bathroom supplies can protect valves and shower heads.
Water across much of Perth and Kinross is soft. In soft water, taps, wastes and toilet pans scale up slowly, so brushed and matt finishes are a safe choice. 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
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.
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 Scotland
In Scotland, the Scottish Water Byelaws 2014 cover new water fittings, with the same 6-litre flush limit and backflow rules. Altering drainage may need a building warrant, so check before moving a WC or adding a new connection to the stack.
