Working in Morecambe
As well as Morecambe itself (LA1, LA3 and LA4), we survey in Heysham, Lancaster and Fleetwood.
Homes in and around Morecambe vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If your Morecambe 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 Morecambe around the roof line, so the shower sits where you can stand and the eaves become storage.
Supplies across most of Lancashire are soft. If that holds for your street in Morecambe, 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
- Electrics by a qualified electrician, tested and certified, then tiling, testing and handover
- A check of the floor joists where a bath or large shower tray will sit
- Fitted furniture made to the eaves, so the low space behind the slope becomes storage
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.
