Working in Yeadon

In Yeadon we cover LS18, LS19 and LS20; we also cover Guiseley, 1.3 miles away, and Horsforth.

Homes in and around Yeadon vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If your Yeadon home has a gravity system with a loft tank, we check the head of water before recommending a shower or a pump. For Yeadon homes on a combi boiler, we measure the flow rate at the bathroom before you choose a shower valve.

Water across much of West Yorkshire 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

Draining down and isolating supplies, with the rest of the house back on water as soon as possible
Basin, bath and shower wastes sized and laid to a steady fall, with traps that hold their water seal
New hot and cold pipework in copper or plastic, properly clipped, and insulated where it runs through cold spaces
A check of your hot water system, and the pressure and flow rate at the bathroom

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.

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.
