Working in South Elmsall

As well as South Elmsall itself (WF9), we survey in Adwick le Street, Pontefract and Bentley.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in South Elmsall: free survey, written quote, one team. We plan loft bathrooms in South Elmsall around the roof line, so the shower sits where you can stand and the eaves become storage. If your South Elmsall house has a combi boiler, a loft shower can usually run on mains pressure without a pump.

Most of West Yorkshire is supplied with soft water. If that holds for your street in South Elmsall, 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

An extractor fan ducted through the roof or a gable wall, with the duct insulated through cold spaces
A shower pump on a gravity system, an electric shower, or advice on moving to mains pressure, depending on your system
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

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 home survey in South Elmsall really free?

Do you cover WF9 in South Elmsall?

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.
