Working in Leeds

As well as Leeds itself (LS1, LS2, LS3 and 16 more postcode districts), we survey in Batley, Dewsbury and Wakefield.

Leeds is a big place with every kind of home, from terraces to flats to new builds, so we never price from a photo alone. We quote wet rooms in Leeds only after looking at the floor construction, because that is where most of the cost difference lies. For a wet room in a Leeds flat, the first step is the lease, because freeholder consent is often needed before any work starts.

Water across much of West Yorkshire is soft. If that holds for your street in Leeds, 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

A thermostatic shower valve, exposed or concealed, with heads to suit your water system
A survey of the floor construction, the joist size and direction or the concrete slab, and the route to the soil stack
Extractor fan and lighting by a qualified electrician, tested and certified, with underfloor heating if you choose it
Slip-resistant porcelain floor tiles and wall tiling

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.

How much does a wet room cost in Leeds?

Is the water hard in Leeds?

Who handles building control for a wet room in Leeds?

Building control for Leeds 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 is tanking in a wet room?

Tanking is the waterproof layer under the tiles that stops water reaching the floor and walls. It is usually a liquid or sheet membrane, with sealing tape at every corner, board joint and pipe. Tiles and grout are not waterproof on their own, so the tanking is what actually keeps the water in.
