Working in High Wycombe

We work right across High Wycombe — HP11, HP12 and HP13 — and in neighbouring Marlow and Amersham.

High Wycombe has a wide mix of house ages, so the survey is where we spot old lead pipework, weak joists or a tight soil stack. For a loft bathroom in a tank-fed High Wycombe home, we work out how the shower will get its pressure before choosing a single fitting. If your High Wycombe house has a combi boiler, a loft shower can usually run on mains pressure without a pump.

Supplies across most of Buckinghamshire are hard. If your supply in High Wycombe is the same, limescale on shower glass and heads is a real issue: easy-clean glass, rub-clean nozzles and a squeegee make a big difference. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

A shower pump on a gravity system, an electric shower, or advice on moving to mains pressure, depending on your system
Electrics by a qualified electrician, tested and certified, then tiling, testing and handover
A survey of the headroom across the room, with the usable height marked at each fitting position
A check of the floor joists where a bath or large shower tray will sit

Decisions to make first

Where the shower goes

Under the ridge or in a dormer, where the full height is. A walk-in shower with a single panel is usually easier to fit to a roof line than a framed enclosure.

Bath or no bath

A bath under the slope makes good use of low space, but the floor has to carry it when it is full of water and someone is in it.

Rules that apply in England

In England, new drainage and a new connection to the soil stack fall under Part H, a new bathroom needs extract of 15 litres per second intermittent or 8 litres per second continuous under Approved Document F, and new circuits are notifiable under Part P. If the work includes an unvented hot-water cylinder, it must be fitted by a G3-qualified installer.

Is the home survey in High Wycombe really free?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

Do you cover HP11 in High Wycombe?

Yes. We cover all of High Wycombe, including HP11, HP12 and HP13, and nearby Marlow, Amersham and Amersham on the Hill. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

How much headroom do you need for a loft shower?

Plan for around 2 m of clear height over the whole shower area, and enough standing height in front of the basin and WC. A bath can sit lower under the slope as long as you can stand up where you get in and out. We mark the usable height at each position on the survey drawing.
