Working in Kingswood

We cover every part of Kingswood, including BS15, BS16 and GL12, and nearby Mangotsfield (2.4 miles) and Keynsham (2.7 miles).

Homes in and around Kingswood vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If your Kingswood 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 Kingswood house has a combi boiler, a loft shower can usually run on mains pressure without a pump.

Water across much of Gloucestershire is hard. If your supply in Kingswood 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 check of your hot-water system and of the pressure and flow you actually get at loft level
A survey of the headroom across the room, with the usable height marked at each fitting position
Electrics by a qualified electrician, tested and certified, then tiling, testing and handover
Fitted furniture made to the eaves, so the low space behind the slope becomes storage

Decisions to make first

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.

Roof window

A roof window over the bath or shower brings daylight and fresh air, but plan the blind for privacy and expect condensation on cold glass.

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 Kingswood: questions

What is the price of a loft bathroom in Kingswood?

Is the home survey in Kingswood 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 BS15 in Kingswood?

Yes. We cover all of Kingswood, including BS15, BS16 and GL12, and nearby Mangotsfield, Keynsham and Bishopsworth. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Kingswood?

Is a bath too heavy for a loft floor?

A standard acrylic bath is usually fine on a loft floor built for a conversion, but a filled bath with someone in it is heavy, and stone-resin or cast-iron baths are much heavier still. We check the joist size, span and direction at the survey, and a heavy bath may need a structural check and strengthening first.
