Working in Sheepscombe
A hidden valley village near Painswick, Sheepscombe's steep terrain and traditional cottages present interesting bathroom installation challenges.
Sheepscombe's homes are built into a steep valley, with many cottages accessed via narrow lanes and steps.
The steep gradient in Sheepscombe means some properties need pumped drainage systems to move waste water uphill to the main sewer.
the Severn Vale gets damp winters with heavy rainfall. Bathrooms need good ventilation and proper waterproofing — condensation on cold stone walls is a particular issue in older properties.
properties in the Severn floodplain areas around Tewkesbury and Gloucester should consider ground-floor bathroom resilience — easily removable lower panels and raised electrical sockets are practical precautions.
