Working in Worcester

We cover every part of Worcester, including WR1, WR2, WR3 and 3 more postcode districts, and nearby Droitwich (6.1 miles) and Great Malvern (7 miles).

In a city the size of Worcester, parking and access for a skip are worth sorting before the start date — we will ask at the survey. For a loft bathroom in a tank-fed Worcester home, we work out how the shower will get its pressure before choosing a single fitting. We plan loft bathrooms in Worcester around the roof line, so the shower sits where you can stand and the eaves become storage.

Most of Worcestershire has moderately hard water. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Worcester. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

A drainage route from the loft to the soil stack with enough fall, or a pumped waste or macerator where the rules allow it
A survey of the headroom across the room, with the usable height marked at each fitting position
An extractor fan ducted through the roof or a gable wall, with the duct insulated through cold spaces
A check of the floor joists where a bath or large shower tray will sit

Decisions to make first

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.

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.

Who handles building control for a loft bathroom in Worcester?

Building control for Worcester 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.
