Working in Birkenhead

We work right across Birkenhead — CH41, CH42, CH43 and 4 more postcode districts — and in neighbouring Liverpool and Bootle.

In a city the size of Birkenhead, parking and access for a skip are worth sorting before the start date — we will ask at the survey. For a loft bathroom in a tank-fed Birkenhead home, we work out how the shower will get its pressure before choosing a single fitting. If your Birkenhead loft conversion has a bedroom but no bathroom, the survey starts with where the soil stack runs and how much headroom you have.

Water across much of Merseyside is soft. If that holds for your street in Birkenhead, 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 check of your hot-water system and of the pressure and flow you actually get at loft level
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 shower pump on a gravity system, an electric shower, or advice on moving to mains pressure, depending on your system

Decisions to make first

Eaves storage

Low cupboards built into the slope behind the WC or basin take clutter out of the room and hide the pipework.

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.

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.

Is the home survey in Birkenhead 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 CH41 in Birkenhead?

Yes. We cover all of Birkenhead, including CH41, CH42, CH43, CH46 and 3 more postcode districts, and nearby Liverpool, Bootle and Allerton. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

How much headroom do you need for a loft shower?

Plan for around 2 m of clear height over the whole shower area, and enough standing height in front of the basin and WC. A bath can sit lower under the slope as long as you can stand up where you get in and out. We mark the usable height at each position on the survey drawing.
