Working in Guisborough

In Guisborough we cover TS14; we also cover Redcar, 5.7 miles away, and Middlesbrough.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Guisborough: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Guisborough house has a combi boiler, a loft shower can usually run on mains pressure without a pump. We plan loft bathrooms in Guisborough around the roof line, so the shower sits where you can stand and the eaves become storage.

Supplies across most of North Yorkshire are moderately hard. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Guisborough. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

An extractor fan ducted through the roof or a gable wall, with the duct insulated through cold spaces
A survey of the headroom across the room, with the usable height marked at each fitting position
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

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.

Do you cover TS14 in Guisborough?

Yes. We cover all of Guisborough, including TS14, and nearby Redcar, Middlesbrough and Thornaby-on-Tees. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Do I need a pump for a loft shower?

You need a pump if your hot water comes from a cylinder fed by a cold tank, because the tank usually sits at or below the height of a loft shower and gives almost no pressure. A combi boiler or unvented cylinder supplies mains pressure, so no pump is needed, though the flow can drop when other taps run. Shower pumps must only be used on gravity systems, never connected to the mains.
