Working in Liversedge
As well as Liversedge itself (BD19, WF15 and WF16), we survey in Heckmondwike, Cleckheaton and Mirfield.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Liversedge: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Liversedge home has a gravity system with a loft tank, we check the head of water before recommending a shower or a pump. In Liversedge flats, any change to the WC or wastes is planned with the lease and the flat below in mind.
Supplies across most of West Yorkshire are 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
- A check of your hot water system, and the pressure and flow rate at the bathroom
- Draining down and isolating supplies, with the rest of the house back on water as soon as possible
- New hot and cold pipework in copper or plastic, properly clipped, and insulated where it runs through cold spaces
- 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 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.
