Working in Crowborough

We work right across Crowborough — TN6 — and in neighbouring Tunbridge Wells and Uckfield.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Crowborough: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Crowborough house has a combi boiler, a loft shower can usually run on mains pressure without a pump. If your Crowborough 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 East Sussex has hard water. If your supply in Crowborough 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

An extractor fan ducted through the roof or a gable wall, with the duct insulated through cold spaces
A shower pump on a gravity system, an electric shower, or advice on moving to mains pressure, depending on your system
Fitted furniture made to the eaves, so the low space behind the slope becomes storage
A survey of the headroom across the room, with the usable height marked at each fitting position

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.

Getting the water pressure

A pumped shower suits a gravity system with a cold tank; an electric shower heats cold mains water at the point of use; a combi or unvented cylinder gives mains pressure throughout.

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 water hard in Crowborough?

Can you put a toilet in a loft?

Yes, if the waste can fall to the soil stack or a macerator can be used. Gravity drainage is the first choice; a macerator is only allowed where the home already has a WC on gravity drainage, which in most houses means the main bathroom.
