Working in Louth

In Louth we cover LN11; we also cover Cleethorpes, 13.4 miles away, and Grimsby.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Louth: free survey, written quote, one team. For a loft bathroom in a tank-fed Louth home, we work out how the shower will get its pressure before choosing a single fitting. If your Louth house has a combi boiler, a loft shower can usually run on mains pressure without a pump.

Supplies across most of Lincolnshire are hard. If your supply in Louth 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 shower pump on a gravity system, an electric shower, or advice on moving to mains pressure, depending on your system
A check of the floor joists where a bath or large shower tray will sit
Electrics by a qualified electrician, tested and certified, then tiling, testing and handover

Decisions to make first

Getting the water pressure

A pumped shower suits a gravity system with a cold tank; an electric shower heats cold mains water at the point of use; a combi or unvented cylinder gives mains pressure throughout.

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.

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.

Who handles building control for a loft bathroom in Louth?

Building control for Louth 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.

Electric shower or pumped shower in a loft?

An electric shower heats cold mains water as it flows, so it works in a loft whatever your hot-water system, but its flow is lower than a good pumped or mains-pressure mixer and it needs its own electrical circuit. A pumped mixer gives a stronger shower on a gravity system. See choosing a shower for the full comparison.
