Working in Kirkby in Ashfield

In Kirkby in Ashfield we cover NG17 and NG18; we also cover Sutton in Ashfield, 1.9 miles away, and Mansfield.

In Kirkby in Ashfield, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If your Kirkby in Ashfield bathroom is upstairs on timber joists, we check their size and direction before planning the wet room floor. In a compact Kirkby in Ashfield bathroom, a wet room frees the space a tray and enclosure would take, but expect the whole floor to get wet.

Water across much of Nottinghamshire is hard. If your supply in Kirkby in Ashfield 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

A thermostatic shower valve, exposed or concealed, with heads to suit your water system
Slip-resistant porcelain floor tiles and wall tiling
Extractor fan and lighting by a qualified electrician, tested and certified, with underfloor heating if you choose it
Floor strengthening or a ply overlay on timber floors so the surface does not flex

Decisions to make first

Underfloor heating

Electric underfloor heating under the tiles dries the floor quickly after a shower; it is typically £700 to £1,500 for a bathroom.

Floor tile

Matt or textured porcelain with good slip resistance. Mosaic gives extra grip on a centre-drain floor because of its many grout lines.

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.

Can I have a wet room in a flat?

Often, but check your lease first. Freeholder consent is commonly needed, especially where the drainage or the floor changes, and the risk of a leak into the flat below means the tanking and drain connection must be done with care. Sound insulation in the floor matters too.
