Working in Lofthouse

We cover every part of Lofthouse, including LS10, LS26 and WF3, and nearby Wakefield (3.2 miles) and Morley (4.2 miles).

Lofthouse gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. In a compact Lofthouse bathroom, a wet room frees the space a tray and enclosure would take, but expect the whole floor to get wet. If your Lofthouse home has a concrete ground floor, a downstairs wet room may need the screed cut out to set the drain.

Supplies across most of West Yorkshire are soft. If that holds for your street in Lofthouse, 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 pre-formed floor former with a linear or centre drain, or a screed laid to fall
Strip-out, waste removal, a final flow test to the drain and handover
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

Decisions to make first

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.

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.

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.

More about wet rooms

Wet rooms in Lofthouse: questions

What is the price of a wet room in Lofthouse?

Do you cover LS10 in Lofthouse?

Yes. We cover all of Lofthouse, including LS10, LS26 and WF3, and nearby Wakefield, Morley and Ossett. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Do wet rooms leak?

A properly tanked wet room should not leak. When one does, the cause is usually a gap in the membrane at a corner or pipe, a poor drain connection, or a floor that flexes and splits the seal. Leaks in wet rooms are expensive to trace, which is why the floor is stiffened first and the tanking is checked before tiling.
