Working in Gerrards Cross

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Gerrards Cross: free survey, written quote, one team. We quote new en-suites in Gerrards Cross only after checking the drainage route on site, so the price reflects the work your house actually needs. For an en-suite in Gerrards Cross, the first question at the survey is always where the waste can reach the soil stack.

Supplies across most of Buckinghamshire are hard. If your supply in Gerrards Cross is the same, limescale on shower glass and heads is a real issue: easy-clean glass, rub-clean nozzles and a squeegee make a big difference. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

A short-projection or wall-hung WC and a compact basin chosen to keep the floor clear
An extractor fan ducted to outside, sized to the room and wired with an overrun timer or humidistat
Stud walls with acoustic insulation and moisture-resistant board for a new en-suite
A door that suits a tight space: inward, outward, sliding or a pocket door

Decisions to make first

Shower size

A 900 mm square tray is a comfortable minimum for an enclosure. In a long, narrow room, a 1200 by 800 mm walk-in tray with one glass panel feels far more generous.

Door type

An outward-opening door frees floor space inside. A sliding pocket door saves space on both sides but needs a stud wall long enough to take the cassette.

Rules that apply in England

In England, a new en-suite brings in Part H for the new connection to the soil stack, Approved Document F for ventilation, at 15 litres per second intermittent or 8 litres per second continuous extract, and Part P for the new circuits. The electrician should be registered with a competent person scheme, or the work notified to building control. On a refit, avoid replacing the fan with a less effective one.

How much space do you need for an en-suite?

As a rough guide, about 2.5 m² is the practical minimum for a shower, basin and WC, for example a space of around 1.2 m by 2.1 m. The exact layout depends on where the door, window and soil stack are, so we test it against your measurements rather than a rule of thumb.
