Working in Castleford

In Castleford we cover WF6 and WF10; we also cover Kippax, 2.9 miles away, and Pontefract.

In Castleford, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If your Castleford house has a combi boiler, a loft shower can usually run on mains pressure without a pump. If your Castleford loft conversion has a bedroom but no bathroom, the survey starts with where the soil stack runs and how much headroom you have.

Supplies across most of West Yorkshire are soft. If that holds for your street in Castleford, limescale on shower glass and heads builds up slowly and a squeegee after use is usually enough. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

A check of your hot-water system and of the pressure and flow you actually get at loft level
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

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.

Eaves storage

Low cupboards built into the slope behind the WC or basin take clutter out of the room and hide the pipework.

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 Castleford?

Can you put a toilet in a loft?

Yes, if the waste can fall to the soil stack or a macerator can be used. Gravity drainage is the first choice; a macerator is only allowed where the home already has a WC on gravity drainage, which in most houses means the main bathroom.
