Working in Stamford
We work right across Stamford — PE9 — and in neighbouring Oakham and Peterborough.
Stamford gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If the only toilet in your Stamford home is upstairs, a cloakroom under the stairs or in the utility can save a lot of trips. We survey cloakrooms in Stamford with the headroom in mind as well as the floor area, because under-stair spaces lose height quickly.
Water across much of Lincolnshire is 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
- Splashback or feature tiling and a new floor, often LVT or porcelain
- A survey that checks the headroom under the stairs, the door swing and how the waste will reach the drain
- Lighting wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
- Strip-out of the old fittings, waste removal and making good on the hall side
Decisions to make first
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.
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.
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.
