Working in Farnborough

In Farnborough we cover GU14; we also cover Camberley, 3 miles away, and Aldershot.

Homes in and around Farnborough vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If your Farnborough 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. We plan loft bathrooms in Farnborough around the roof line, so the shower sits where you can stand and the eaves become storage.

Water across much of Hampshire is hard. If your supply in Farnborough 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

Fitted furniture made to the eaves, so the low space behind the slope becomes storage
A check of the floor joists where a bath or large shower tray will sit
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

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.

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.

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.

More about loft bathrooms

Loft bathrooms in Farnborough: questions

How much should I budget for a loft bathroom in Farnborough?

A loft bathroom in Farnborough usually costs £7,300–£14,500 including VAT. Where you land in that range depends on the size of the room, whether the layout changes and the products you choose.

Is the water hard in Farnborough?

Who handles building control for a loft bathroom in Farnborough?

Building control for Farnborough is handled by the local council or an approved inspector. If your job needs sign-off — for example a new circuit, new drainage or a new extractor where there was none — we tell you at the survey and handle the notification as part of the work.

How do you ventilate a loft bathroom?

A loft bathroom fan is usually ducted through the roof to a tile or slate vent, or out through a gable wall. The duct should be insulated where it crosses a cold space, so condensation does not run back into the fan. A roof window helps with daylight and airing but does not replace the fan.
