Working in Stockport

We work right across Stockport — SK1, SK2, SK3 and 4 more postcode districts — and in neighbouring Bredbury and Hazel Grove.

Stockport has a wide mix of house ages, so the survey is where we spot old lead pipework, weak joists or a tight soil stack. We check the duct route at Stockport surveys, because a short, straight run to outside matters more than the fan's headline figure. Fans fitted in Stockport bathrooms are wired by a qualified electrician, with RCD protection and an isolator outside the room.

Supplies across most of Greater Manchester are soft. Even so, condensation is the bigger problem in any bathroom, and a properly sized extractor is what deals with it. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

  • Wiring by a qualified electrician, with an isolator outside the room and RCD protection
  • Core-drilling through the wall, or ducting through the loft to a roof or soffit vent
  • Making good around the fan and checking that it extracts properly at the grille
  • A fan chosen to meet the bathroom extract rate: 15 l/s intermittent or 8 l/s continuous

Decisions to make first

Intermittent or continuous

An intermittent fan runs during and after use. A continuous fan runs quietly all the time at a low rate and boosts when humidity rises.

Axial, centrifugal or inline

Axial fans suit short, straight runs; centrifugal fans cope better with longer ducts; inline fans sit in the loft and are the quietest in the room.

Rules that apply in England

In England, Approved Document F sets bathroom extract at 15 l/s for an intermittent fan or 8 l/s for continuous extract. Wiring a new fan alters a circuit in a room with a bath or shower, so it is notifiable under Part P.

More about extractor fans & ventilation

Extractor fans & ventilation in Stockport: questions

How much does a bathroom extractor fan cost in Stockport?

A bathroom extractor fan in Stockport usually costs £235–£550 including VAT. Where you land in that range depends on the size of the room, whether the layout changes and the products you choose. After the free survey you get an itemised written quote, and the price is fixed in writing once the layout and products are agreed.

Who handles building control for a bathroom extractor fan in Stockport?

Building control for Stockport 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.

How long does a bathroom extractor fan take?

Allow half a day on site for most jobs, plus the lead time for products after you approve the quote. We give you a day-by-day plan before work starts in Stockport.

Is the home survey in Stockport really free?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

Why is my bathroom still getting mould when it has a fan?

Usually because the fan is not moving enough air. Common causes are a long or kinked duct, a blocked grille or stuck backdraught shutter, no gap under the door for replacement air, or a fan that stops as soon as the light goes off. Cold surfaces, such as a poorly insulated ceiling, make condensation worse.
