Working in Billericay
As well as Billericay itself (CM12), we survey in Basildon, Wickford and Brentwood.
Homes in and around Billericay vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. For an en-suite in Billericay, the first question at the survey is always where the waste can reach the soil stack. We quote new en-suites in Billericay only after checking the drainage route on site, so the price reflects the work your house actually needs.
Water across much of Essex is very hard. If your supply in Billericay 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
- 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
- A pumped waste or macerator where gravity drainage is not possible, and only where the house already has a WC on gravity drainage
- Tiling, silicone, testing and making good on the bedroom side of any new walls
Decisions to make first
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.
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.
