Working in Biddulph

As well as Biddulph itself (ST8), we survey in Kidsgrove, Congleton and Leek.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Biddulph: free survey, written quote, one team. Where your Biddulph home already has a WC on gravity drainage, a macerator opens up more places a new cloakroom can go. If you are refreshing a dated cloakroom in Biddulph, a wall-hung WC and slim vanity can change the room in a few days.

Supplies across most of Staffordshire are moderately hard. Taps and wastes will need an occasional descale, and chrome or brushed finishes are easier to keep clean than polished brass. 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 concealed cistern frame or WC unit where the space allows
  • Lighting wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
  • Compact sanitaryware: a short-projection, back-to-wall or wall-hung WC and a corner, wall-hung or slim vanity basin

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.

WC style

A wall-hung WC on a frame gives the most floor space and looks neat. A back-to-wall pan in a short furniture unit is easier to fit against an uneven wall.

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.

How much should I budget for a cloakroom or downstairs WC in Biddulph?

Do you cover ST8 in Biddulph?

Is the water hard in Biddulph?

Supplies across most of Staffordshire are moderately hard. Taps and wastes will need an occasional descale, and chrome or brushed finishes are easier to keep clean than polished brass. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

How big does a downstairs toilet need to be?

Around 800 mm wide by 1,400 mm long is often quoted as a practical minimum for a compact WC and a small basin, with the door opening outwards. A little more width makes the room far more comfortable, and under stairs the usable length depends on the headroom.
