Hi,
My mum want to get an ensuite shower room put into the corner of a bedroom in her house (mid 50's detached). The room will contain basin, shower and toilet, ventilation will be by an extractor fan - no new window is being added.
The builder and plumber both say that buildings regs approval is not needed. The plumber said that it would only be required if they were making a new connection into a sewer - instead they will be putting a new pipe into the existing waste stack which doesn't need approval.
Is this information correct? I was under the impression that approval would be required for work of this nature.
Thanks, Martin.
