Working in Radcliffe
We work right across Radcliffe — BL9, M26 and M45 — and in neighbouring Whitefield and Prestwich.
Homes in and around Radcliffe vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If the en-suite in your Radcliffe 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 Radcliffe only after checking the drainage route on site, so the price reflects the work your house actually needs.
Water across much of Greater Manchester is soft. If that holds for your street in Radcliffe, 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 short-projection or wall-hung WC and a compact basin chosen to keep the floor clear
- 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
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.
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.
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.
