Working in Auchterarder
We work right across Auchterarder — PH3 — and in neighbouring Crieff and Perth.
Auchterarder gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. Where your Auchterarder home already has a WC on gravity drainage, a macerator opens up more places a new cloakroom can go. For a new cloakroom in Auchterarder, the first thing we look at is where the nearest drain or soil stack runs.
Most of Perth and Kinross is supplied with soft water. 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
- 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
- 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
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.
Under-stair layout
Headroom drops quickly under stairs. The basin and the space in front of the WC need standing height; the low end of the room can take the cistern or storage.
Rules that apply in Scotland
In Scotland, forming a new WC that alters drainage may need a building warrant, while refitting an existing cloakroom normally does not. Water fittings are covered by the Scottish Water Byelaws 2014, and electrics should be tested and certified to BS 7671.
