Working in Bentley
We cover every part of Bentley, including DN1, DN2 and DN5, and nearby Doncaster (1.1 miles) and Adwick le Street (2.9 miles).
In Bentley, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. For Bentley homes on a combi boiler, we measure the flow rate at the bathroom before you choose a shower valve. If your Bentley home has a gravity system with a loft tank, we check the head of water before recommending a shower or a pump.
Water across much of South Yorkshire is moderately hard. Taps and wastes will need an occasional descale, and chrome or brushed finishes are easier to keep clean than polished brass. 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 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
- Draining down and isolating supplies, with the rest of the house back on water as soon as possible
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.
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.
