Working in Stirling

In Stirling we cover FK7, FK8, FK9 and 1 more postcode districts; we also cover Alloa, 5.7 miles away, and Falkirk.

In Stirling, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If the en-suite in your Stirling home was squeezed in by a previous owner, a refit is a chance to fix the door swing and the tray size. We quote new en-suites in Stirling only after checking the drainage route on site, so the price reflects the work your house actually needs.

Supplies across most of the Forth Valley are soft. If that holds for your street in Stirling, limescale on shower glass and heads builds up slowly and a squeegee after use is usually enough. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

A survey that traces the route from the en-suite to the soil stack and checks the fall the waste pipes would need
Tiling, silicone, testing and making good on the bedroom side of any new walls
A shower tray or level-access former, an enclosure or walk-in panel, and a thermostatic valve
A door that suits a tight space: inward, outward, sliding or a pocket door

Decisions to make first

Noise

Acoustic insulation in the stud walls and a quiet fan make a real difference when one of you showers early while the other is still asleep.

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.

Rules that apply in Scotland

In Scotland, forming a new en-suite may need a building warrant because it creates a new bathroom and alters drainage; refitting an existing one rarely does. The Technical Handbook uses the same 15 litres per second extract rate for a bathroom, and the electrics should be tested and certified to BS 7671.

More about en-suites

En-suites in Stirling: questions

What is the price of an en-suite in Stirling?

An en-suite in Stirling usually costs £4,300–£8,600 including VAT. Room size, layout changes and your choice of products move the figure within that range. The free survey gives you an itemised quote, fixed in writing once the details are agreed.

Do you cover FK7 in Stirling?

Yes. We cover all of Stirling, including FK7, FK8, FK9 and FK15, and nearby Alloa, Falkirk and Grangemouth. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Stirling?

Will an en-suite in Stirling need a building warrant?

Usually not for a straight refit. Building warrants are issued by the local council's building standards service, and forming a new bathroom, changing drainage or structural work can need one. We tell you at the survey and handle the application if one is needed.

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.
