Working in Wilmslow
We work right across Wilmslow — M90, SK8 and SK9 — and in neighbouring Bramhall and Cheadle Hulme.
Homes in and around Wilmslow vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If your Wilmslow home has one bathroom and a good-sized main bedroom, an en-suite is often the change that eases the morning queue. If you live in a Wilmslow flat, check the lease before planning a new en-suite, as freeholder consent is often needed for new drainage and vents.
Most of Cheshire has moderately hard water. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Wilmslow. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Stud walls with acoustic insulation and moisture-resistant board for a new en-suite
- A shower tray or level-access former, an enclosure or walk-in panel, and a thermostatic valve
- An extractor fan ducted to outside, sized to the room and wired with an overrun timer or humidistat
- IP-rated lighting, a shaver socket and the electrics done by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
Decisions to make first
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.
Refit or new en-suite
A refit keeps the existing drainage and walls. A new en-suite costs more because the walls, waste route, fan duct and electrics all start from nothing.
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.
