Working in Nuneaton

We cover every part of Nuneaton, including CV10 and CV11, and nearby Bedworth (3.1 miles) and Hinckley (3.9 miles).

Nuneaton has a wide mix of house ages, so the survey is where we spot old lead pipework, weak joists or a tight soil stack. If your Nuneaton home has a gravity-drained WC on another floor, a macerator in the loft may open up more layout options. If your Nuneaton loft shower is weak or the waste drains slowly, the fix is often in the pump or the pipe fall rather than the shower itself.

Water across much of Warwickshire is hard. If your supply in Nuneaton 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

Electrics by a qualified electrician, tested and certified, then tiling, testing and handover
A drainage route from the loft to the soil stack with enough fall, or a pumped waste or macerator where the rules allow it
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

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.

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 water hard in Nuneaton?

Who handles building control for a loft bathroom in Nuneaton?

Building control for Nuneaton 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.

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.
