Working in Yeadon

In Yeadon we cover LS18, LS19 and LS20; we also cover Guiseley, 1.3 miles away, and Horsforth.

Homes in and around Yeadon vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If your Yeadon home has a concrete ground floor, a downstairs wet room may need the screed cut out to set the drain. For a wet room in a Yeadon flat, the first step is the lease, because freeholder consent is often needed before any work starts.

Most of West Yorkshire is supplied with soft water. If that holds for your street in Yeadon, 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

Strip-out, waste removal, a final flow test to the drain and handover
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
Extractor fan and lighting by a qualified electrician, tested and certified, with underfloor heating if you choose it

Decisions to make first

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.

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.

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.
