Working in Woking
In Woking we cover GU21 and GU22; we also cover Chertsey, 5.3 miles away, and Weybridge.
Across a large town like Woking, homes range from older terraces to newer estates; the survey tells us which pipework and floor we are dealing with. Where your Woking 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 Woking, a wall-hung WC and slim vanity can change the room in a few days.
Supplies across most of Surrey are 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
- 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
- Splashback or feature tiling and a new floor, often LVT or porcelain
Decisions to make first
Macerator or gravity
Gravity drainage is silent and needs no maintenance. A macerator lets a WC go where a pipe could not otherwise fall, provided another WC in the house is on gravity drainage.
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.
