Working in Kirkby in Ashfield
We cover every part of Kirkby in Ashfield, including NG17 and NG18, and nearby Sutton in Ashfield (1.9 miles) and Mansfield (2.9 miles).
In Kirkby in Ashfield, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If your Kirkby in Ashfield home has a gravity-drained WC on another floor, a macerator in the loft may open up more layout options. If your Kirkby in Ashfield loft conversion has a bedroom but no bathroom, the survey starts with where the soil stack runs and how much headroom you have.
Most of Nottinghamshire has hard water. If your supply in Kirkby in Ashfield 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 check of your hot-water system and of the pressure and flow you actually get at loft level
- A drainage route from the loft to the soil stack with enough fall, or a pumped waste or macerator where the rules allow it
- A survey of the headroom across the room, with the usable height marked at each fitting position
Decisions to make first
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.
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.
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.
