Working in Ashton-under-Lyne

As well as Ashton-under-Lyne itself (M34, M43, OL6 and 3 more postcode districts), we survey in Dukinfield, Stalybridge and Droylsden.

In Ashton-under-Lyne, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If you live in a Ashton-under-Lyne flat, check the lease before planning a new en-suite, as freeholder consent is often needed for new drainage and vents. We quote new en-suites in Ashton-under-Lyne only after checking the drainage route on site, so the price reflects the work your house actually needs.

Supplies across most of Greater Manchester are soft. If that holds for your street in Ashton-under-Lyne, 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 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
An extractor fan ducted to outside, sized to the room and wired with an overrun timer or humidistat
A short-projection or wall-hung WC and a compact basin chosen to keep the floor clear

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.

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.

Is the home survey in Ashton-under-Lyne really free?

Is a macerator toilet OK in an en-suite?

A macerator is a legitimate option where gravity drainage cannot reach the soil stack, as long as there is another WC in the house on gravity drainage. It needs an electrical supply, makes some noise while it runs and should only take toilet waste and paper. Models that also take the shower and basin waste are available.
