Working in Longfield
As well as Longfield itself (DA3, DA4 and DA13), we survey in Hartley, Swanscombe and Gravesend.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Longfield: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Longfield 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 Longfield home has a gravity-drained WC on another floor, a macerator in the loft may open up more layout options.
Most of Kent has very hard water. If your supply in Longfield 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
- Electrics by a qualified electrician, tested and certified, then tiling, testing and handover
- A check of your hot-water system and of the pressure and flow you actually get at loft level
- A check of the floor joists where a bath or large shower tray will sit
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.
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.
