Working in Alfreton

As well as Alfreton itself (DE55), we survey in Ripley, Sutton in Ashfield and Kirkby in Ashfield.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Alfreton: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Alfreton home has one bathroom and a good-sized main bedroom, an en-suite is often the change that eases the morning queue. If the en-suite in your Alfreton home was squeezed in by a previous owner, a refit is a chance to fix the door swing and the tray size.

Most of Derbyshire has moderately hard water. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Alfreton. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

IP-rated lighting, a shaver socket and the electrics done by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
A pumped waste or macerator where gravity drainage is not possible, and only where the house already has a WC on gravity drainage
A survey that traces the route from the en-suite to the soil stack and checks the fall the waste pipes would need
A door that suits a tight space: inward, outward, sliding or a pocket door

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.

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.

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.

Do I need building regulations approval for an en-suite?

A new en-suite usually does, because it involves new drainage, an extractor fan and new electrical circuits. A like-for-like refit of an existing en-suite normally does not, apart from any electrical work that is notifiable where you live. We tell you which parts apply at the survey.
