Newton-le-Willows gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If your Newton-le-Willows house has a combi boiler, a loft shower can usually run on mains pressure without a pump. If your Newton-le-Willows loft conversion has a bedroom but no bathroom, the survey starts with where the soil stack runs and how much headroom you have.
Supplies across most of Merseyside are soft. If that holds for your street in Newton-le-Willows, 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
- 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
- An extractor fan ducted through the roof or a gable wall, with the duct insulated through cold spaces
- A drainage route from the loft to the soil stack with enough fall, or a pumped waste or macerator where the rules allow it
Decisions to make first
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.
Gravity or pumped waste
Gravity is silent and maintenance-free. A pumped waste or macerator lets fittings sit away from the stack, provided the house has a WC on gravity drainage elsewhere.
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.
