Working in Newquay

We work right across Newquay — TR7 — and in neighbouring Truro and St Austell.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Newquay: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Newquay loft shower is weak or the waste drains slowly, the fix is often in the pump or the pipe fall rather than the shower itself. If your Newquay loft conversion has a bedroom but no bathroom, the survey starts with where the soil stack runs and how much headroom you have.

Most of Cornwall is supplied with soft water. If that holds for your street in Newquay, limescale on shower glass and heads builds up slowly and a squeegee after use is usually enough. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

A check of the floor joists where a bath or large shower tray will sit
A drainage route from the loft to the soil stack with enough fall, or a pumped waste or macerator where the rules allow it
A check of your hot-water system and of the pressure and flow you actually get at loft level
Electrics by a qualified electrician, tested and certified, then tiling, testing and handover

Decisions to make first

Eaves storage

Low cupboards built into the slope behind the WC or basin take clutter out of the room and hide the pipework.

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.

Loft bathrooms in Newquay: questions

How much does a loft bathroom cost in Newquay?

Is the water hard in Newquay?

Who handles building control for a loft bathroom in Newquay?

Building control for Newquay is handled by the local council or an approved inspector. If your job needs sign-off — for example a new circuit, new drainage or a new extractor where there was none — we tell you at the survey and handle the notification as part of the work.

How do you ventilate a loft bathroom?

A loft bathroom fan is usually ducted through the roof to a tile or slate vent, or out through a gable wall. The duct should be insulated where it crosses a cold space, so condensation does not run back into the fan. A roof window helps with daylight and airing but does not replace the fan.
