Working in Dudley

We cover every part of Dudley, including B64, DY1, DY2 and 5 more postcode districts, and nearby Tipton (2.1 miles) and West Bromwich (4 miles).

Dudley has a wide mix of house ages, so the survey is where we spot old lead pipework, weak joists or a tight soil stack. For a loft bathroom in a tank-fed Dudley home, we work out how the shower will get its pressure before choosing a single fitting. If your Dudley home has a gravity-drained WC on another floor, a macerator in the loft may open up more layout options.

Water hardness varies across the West Midlands: some supplies are soft, others moderately hard or hard. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Dudley. 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 shower pump on a gravity system, an electric shower, or advice on moving to mains pressure, depending on your system
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

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.

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.

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 Dudley?

Is a bath too heavy for a loft floor?

A standard acrylic bath is usually fine on a loft floor built for a conversion, but a filled bath with someone in it is heavy, and stone-resin or cast-iron baths are much heavier still. We check the joist size, span and direction at the survey, and a heavy bath may need a structural check and strengthening first.
