Working in Swinton
We work right across Swinton — M27, M28 and M30 — and in neighbouring Eccles and Walkden.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Swinton: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Swinton 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 Swinton home has a gravity-drained WC on another floor, a macerator in the loft may open up more layout options.
Most of Greater Manchester is supplied with soft water. If that holds for your street in Swinton, 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 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
- Electrics by a qualified electrician, tested and certified, then tiling, testing and handover
Decisions to make first
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.
Gravity or pumped waste
Gravity is silent and maintenance-free. A pumped waste or macerator lets fittings sit away from the stack, provided the house has a WC on gravity drainage elsewhere.
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.
