Working in Maltby

As well as Maltby itself (S25 and S66), we survey in Dinnington, Conisbrough and Rotherham.

Maltby gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. We plan loft bathrooms in Maltby around the roof line, so the shower sits where you can stand and the eaves become storage. If your Maltby 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 South Yorkshire has moderately hard water. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Maltby. 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
An extractor fan ducted through the roof or a gable wall, with the duct insulated through cold spaces
Electrics by a qualified electrician, tested and certified, then tiling, testing and handover
A check of the floor joists where a bath or large shower tray will sit

Decisions to make first

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.

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.

Is the water hard in Maltby?

Who handles building control for a loft bathroom in Maltby?

Building control for Maltby is handled by the local council or an approved inspector. If your job needs sign-off — for example a new circuit, new drainage or a new extractor where there was none — we tell you at the survey and handle the notification as part of the work.

Electric shower or pumped shower in a loft?

An electric shower heats cold mains water as it flows, so it works in a loft whatever your hot-water system, but its flow is lower than a good pumped or mains-pressure mixer and it needs its own electrical circuit. A pumped mixer gives a stronger shower on a gravity system. See choosing a shower for the full comparison.
