Working in St Neots
We cover every part of St Neots, including PE19, and nearby Huntingdon (8.6 miles) and Biggleswade (9 miles).
In St Neots, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If you live in a St Neots flat, check the lease before planning a new en-suite, as freeholder consent is often needed for new drainage and vents. For an en-suite in St Neots, the first question at the survey is always where the waste can reach the soil stack.
Most of Cambridgeshire has very hard water. If your supply in St Neots 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
- Tiling, silicone, testing and making good on the bedroom side of any new walls
- An extractor fan ducted to outside, sized to the room and wired with an overrun timer or humidistat
- A door that suits a tight space: inward, outward, sliding or a pocket door
- A survey that traces the route from the en-suite to the soil stack and checks the fall the waste pipes would need
Decisions to make first
Night lighting
A mirror light or low-level LED strip on its own switch lets you use the en-suite at night without the full glare of the ceiling lights.
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.
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.
