Working in Wolverhampton
We cover every part of Wolverhampton, including WV1, WV2, WV3 and 3 more postcode districts, and nearby Willenhall (2.7 miles) and Tipton (4.5 miles).
Wolverhampton is a big place with every kind of home, from terraces to flats to new builds, so we never price from a photo alone. If the only toilet in your Wolverhampton home is upstairs, a cloakroom under the stairs or in the utility can save a lot of trips. If your Wolverhampton cloakroom has no window, we size and duct the extractor fan so the room clears properly.
Hardness differs from one part of the West Midlands to the next. 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
- A survey that checks the headroom under the stairs, the door swing and how the waste will reach the drain
- An extractor fan ducted to outside, wired with an overrun timer or linked to the light
- Lighting wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
- Strip-out of the old fittings, waste removal and making good on the hall side
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.
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.
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.
