Working in Burnham-on-Sea
As well as Burnham-on-Sea itself (TA8), we survey in Weston-super-Mare, Bridgwater and Clevedon.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Burnham-on-Sea: free survey, written quote, one team. We survey cloakrooms in Burnham-on-Sea with the headroom in mind as well as the floor area, because under-stair spaces lose height quickly. Where your Burnham-on-Sea home already has a WC on gravity drainage, a macerator opens up more places a new cloakroom can go.
Water across much of Somerset 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
- Compact sanitaryware: a short-projection, back-to-wall or wall-hung WC and a corner, wall-hung or slim vanity basin
- An extractor fan ducted to outside, wired with an overrun timer or linked to the light
- Strip-out of the old fittings, waste removal and making good on the hall side
- 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.
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.
