Working in Droylsden
As well as Droylsden itself (M11, M18 and M43), we survey in Failsworth, Denton and Ashton-under-Lyne.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Droylsden: free survey, written quote, one team. We plan loft bathrooms in Droylsden around the roof line, so the shower sits where you can stand and the eaves become storage. If your Droylsden home has a gravity-drained WC on another floor, a macerator in the loft may open up more layout options.
Water across much of Greater Manchester is soft. If that holds for your street in Droylsden, 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 your hot-water system and of the pressure and flow you actually get at loft level
- A drainage route from the loft to the soil stack with enough fall, or a pumped waste or macerator where the rules allow it
- 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
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.
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.
