Working in Golborne
We cover every part of Golborne, including WA3, WA12 and WN4, and nearby Newton-le-Willows (1.9 miles) and Ashton in Makerfield (2.2 miles).
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Golborne: free survey, written quote, one team. If the only toilet in your Golborne home is upstairs, a cloakroom under the stairs or in the utility can save a lot of trips. For a new cloakroom in Golborne, the first thing we look at is where the nearest drain or soil stack runs.
Water across much of Merseyside 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
- A concealed cistern frame or WC unit where the space allows
- Strip-out of the old fittings, waste removal and making good on the hall side
- 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
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.
Finishes
A small room can carry a bolder tile or wallpaper. A feature wall behind the WC costs far less here than in a full bathroom because there is so little of it.
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.
