Working in Bognor Regis
We cover every part of Bognor Regis, including PO21 and PO22, and nearby Chichester (5.8 miles) and Littlehampton (6.4 miles).
Homes in and around Bognor Regis vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. For Bognor Regis homes on a combi boiler, we measure the flow rate at the bathroom before you choose a shower valve. If your Bognor Regis bathroom layout is changing, the soil stack position is checked first, because it decides where the WC can go.
Most of West Sussex has hard water. 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
- A check of your hot water system, and the pressure and flow rate at the bathroom
- Isolation valves on every fitting, so taps, cisterns and valves can be serviced without draining the system
- Draining down and isolating supplies, with the rest of the house back on water as soon as possible
Decisions to make first
Gravity or pumped waste
Gravity drainage is always the first choice. A shower waste pump or macerator solves a run that cannot fall, but adds noise, a power supply and servicing.
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.
