Working in Yate

We work right across Yate — BS37 — and in neighbouring Mangotsfield and Kingswood.

Yate gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If you are planning a wet room in Yate for level access, we design the fall and drain so the floor is flush from the doorway. If your Yate bathroom is upstairs on timber joists, we check their size and direction before planning the wet room floor.

Water across much of Gloucestershire is hard. If your supply in Yate is the same, limescale on shower glass and heads is a real issue: easy-clean glass, rub-clean nozzles and a squeegee make a big difference. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Floor strengthening or a ply overlay on timber floors so the surface does not flex
A pre-formed floor former with a linear or centre drain, or a screed laid to fall
A survey of the floor construction, the joist size and direction or the concrete slab, and the route to the soil stack
Slip-resistant porcelain floor tiles and wall tiling

Decisions to make first

Open or screened

A fully open shower with no glass only works in a larger room, with the basin, WC and towels well away from the spray.

Linear or centre drain

A linear drain along one wall lets the floor fall in a single direction, so large tiles can be laid without awkward cuts. A centre drain needs a four-way fall and suits smaller tiles or mosaic.

Rules that apply in England

In England, a new drain connection or changes at the soil stack can be building-regulations work under Part H, and new circuits or changes to the wiring in the room are notifiable under Part P. If the wet room is a newly formed bathroom, Approved Document F requires extract of 15 litres per second intermittent or 8 litres per second continuous.

Who handles building control for a wet room in Yate?

Building control for Yate 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.

What tiles should I use on a wet room floor?

Use porcelain with a matt or textured, slip-resistant finish. With a linear drain, larger tiles can be laid because the floor falls in one direction; with a centre drain, smaller tiles or mosaic follow the four-way fall more easily, and the extra grout lines add grip. Avoid polished stone or glossy tiles on a wet floor; see bathroom tiling.
