Working in Uckfield
In Uckfield we cover TN22; we also cover Crowborough, 7 miles away, and Lewes.
Uckfield gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If your Uckfield cloakroom has no window, we size and duct the extractor fan so the room clears properly. Where your Uckfield home already has a WC on gravity drainage, a macerator opens up more places a new cloakroom can go.
Supplies across most of East Sussex are hard. 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
- A concealed cistern frame or WC unit where the space allows
- Compact sanitaryware: a short-projection, back-to-wall or wall-hung WC and a corner, wall-hung or slim vanity basin
- Lighting wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
- Splashback or feature tiling and a new floor, often LVT or porcelain
Decisions to make first
Macerator or gravity
Gravity drainage is silent and needs no maintenance. A macerator lets a WC go where a pipe could not otherwise fall, provided another WC in the house is on gravity drainage.
Basin
A corner basin fits the tightest rooms. A slim vanity basin with a cupboard underneath gives somewhere to keep spare toilet rolls and soap, and hides the trap.
Rules that apply in England
In England, a new WC connected to the soil stack or drain is drainage work under Part H, and a newly formed cloakroom without an opening window should have mechanical extract; Approved Document F gives 6 litres per second as the design rate for a WC, against 15 for a bathroom. Because a cloakroom has no bath or shower, adding a light to an existing circuit is not notifiable under Part P, but a new circuit is.
