Working in Kingswood

As well as Kingswood itself (BS15, BS16 and GL12), we survey in Mangotsfield, Keynsham and Bishopsworth.

In Kingswood, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. We quote new en-suites in Kingswood only after checking the drainage route on site, so the price reflects the work your house actually needs. For an en-suite in Kingswood, the first question at the survey is always where the waste can reach the soil stack.

Supplies across most of Gloucestershire are hard. If your supply in Kingswood 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
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

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.

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.

Is the water hard in Kingswood?

What extractor fan does an en-suite need?

In England, a new en-suite needs extract ventilation of at least 15 litres per second if the fan runs intermittently, or 8 litres per second if it runs continuously. Duct it to outside, keep the duct run short, and choose a quiet fan with an overrun timer, because it sits next to a bedroom.
