Working in Stamford

We work right across Stamford — PE9 — and in neighbouring Oakham and Peterborough.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Stamford: free survey, written quote, one team. For a loft bathroom in a tank-fed Stamford home, we work out how the shower will get its pressure before choosing a single fitting. If your Stamford 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 Stamford 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

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
A survey of the headroom across the room, with the usable height marked at each fitting position
A check of your hot-water system and of the pressure and flow you actually get at loft level

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.

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 Stamford: questions

How much does a loft bathroom cost in Stamford?

A loft bathroom in Stamford usually costs £6,200–£12,500 including VAT. Where you land in that range depends on the size of the room, whether the layout changes and the products you choose. After the free survey you get an itemised written quote, and the price is fixed in writing once the layout and products are agreed.

Is the home survey in Stamford really free?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

Do you cover PE9 in Stamford?

Yes. We cover all of Stamford, including PE9, and nearby Oakham, Peterborough and Corby. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Stamford?

Can you put a toilet in a loft?

Yes, if the waste can fall to the soil stack or a macerator can be used. Gravity drainage is the first choice; a macerator is only allowed where the home already has a WC on gravity drainage, which in most houses means the main bathroom.
