Working in Ruislip
As well as Ruislip itself (HA4, HA5 and UB10), we survey in Northolt, Uxbridge and Harrow.
In Ruislip, many bathrooms are in flats or converted houses, so we check lease consents, access and the floor below before we price. If your Ruislip loft conversion has a bedroom but no bathroom, the survey starts with where the soil stack runs and how much headroom you have. If your Ruislip 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.
Water across much of Greater London is very hard. If your supply in Ruislip 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 survey of the headroom across the room, with the usable height marked at each fitting position
- 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 shower pump on a gravity system, an electric shower, or advice on moving to mains pressure, depending on your system
- A check of your hot-water system and of the pressure and flow you actually get at loft level
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.
Eaves storage
Low cupboards built into the slope behind the WC or basin take clutter out of the room and hide the pipework.
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.
