What does an en-suite cost in Welling?
Our guide price for an en-suite in Welling is £5,600–£11,250 including VAT. Prices in London run at about 25% above the national guide, mainly because of labour rates. The figure depends on the size of the room, whether anything moves, and the products you pick.

Working in Welling
We work right across Welling — DA6, DA15 and DA16 — and in neighbouring Bexley and Eltham.
In Welling, many bathrooms are in flats or converted houses, so we check lease consents, access and the floor below before we price. For an en-suite in Welling, the first question at the survey is always where the waste can reach the soil stack. If your Welling en-suite fan just blows into the loft, we can duct it properly to outside as part of the refit.
Supplies across most of Greater London are very hard. If your supply in Welling 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
- A short-projection or wall-hung WC and a compact basin chosen to keep the floor clear
- An extractor fan ducted to outside, sized to the room and wired with an overrun timer or humidistat
- A survey that traces the route from the en-suite to the soil stack and checks the fall the waste pipes would need
- 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
Exposed or concealed valve
An exposed bar valve is quicker to fit and easy to service. A concealed valve looks cleaner but sits inside the wall, so plan how it will be reached for repairs.
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 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.
