Working in Chadderton
We work right across Chadderton — OL1, OL8 and OL9 — and in neighbouring Oldham and Royton.
Homes in and around Chadderton vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If the only toilet in your Chadderton home is upstairs, a cloakroom under the stairs or in the utility can save a lot of trips. Where your Chadderton home already has a WC on gravity drainage, a macerator opens up more places a new cloakroom can go.
Supplies across most of Greater Manchester 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
- Lighting wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
- An extractor fan ducted to outside, wired with an overrun timer or linked to the light
- A survey that checks the headroom under the stairs, the door swing and how the waste will reach the drain
- A new waste connection to the soil stack or drain, or a macerator where the rules allow it
Decisions to make first
Door
An outward-opening door is usually needed so it does not hit the WC. A sliding door suits a narrow hallway where an outward door would block the way.
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.
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.
