Working in Kirkby

In Kirkby we cover L32 and L33; we also cover Maghull, 3.1 miles away, and Litherland.

In Kirkby, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If you live in a listed building in Kirkby, we flag any change that may need listed building consent, such as a new soil pipe through a wall. For a stone or cast-iron bath in a Kirkby property, we check the floor structure before anything is ordered.

Water across much of Merseyside is soft. That leaves you free to choose matt black, brushed brass or clear glass without worrying much about limescale. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Floor strengthening where a stone-resin, cast-iron or natural stone bath needs it
Concealed thermostatic or digital shower valves, set into the wall to the depth the manufacturer specifies
A full product schedule naming every piece of sanitaryware, brassware, tile and light fitting
A full snag check, sealing of stone where needed, and a handover of manuals and isolation points

Decisions to make first

Heating

Underfloor heating under stone or porcelain makes the room comfortable all year; pair it with a towel rail for drying.

Shower system

A concealed thermostatic valve with a ceiling head and handset is the usual choice. A digital valve sets the temperature from a wall panel, and a steam enclosure needs its own generator and supply.

Rules that apply in England

In England, the new circuits a luxury bathroom often needs, for underfloor heating, a steam unit or a digital shower, are notifiable under Part P. An unvented hot-water cylinder, often fitted to feed a large shower, must be installed by a G3-qualified installer, and any work on the boiler must be done by a Gas Safe registered engineer.

Is the water hard in Kirkby?

What does a steam shower need?

A steam shower is a fully sealed enclosure or room with a generator that fills it with steam. It needs its own electrical circuit, a sealed door, usually a sloped ceiling so condensation runs off rather than dripping, full tanking and a drain. It has to be planned into the room from the start, not added later.
