Working in Rochdale
We work right across Rochdale — OL11, OL12, OL15 and 1 more postcode districts — and in neighbouring Heywood and Royton.
Across a large town like Rochdale, homes range from older terraces to newer estates; the survey tells us which pipework and floor we are dealing with. For an en-suite in Rochdale, the first question at the survey is always where the waste can reach the soil stack. We quote new en-suites in Rochdale 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 Rochdale, 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 short-projection or wall-hung WC and a compact basin chosen to keep the floor clear
- IP-rated lighting, a shaver socket and the electrics done by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
- A survey that traces the route from the en-suite to the soil stack and checks the fall the waste pipes would need
- An extractor fan ducted to outside, sized to the room and wired with an overrun timer or humidistat
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.
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.
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.
