Working in Royton

In Royton we cover OL1, OL2 and OL9; we also cover Chadderton, 1.6 miles away, and Oldham.

Royton gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If your Royton home has one bathroom and a good-sized main bedroom, an en-suite is often the change that eases the morning queue. For an en-suite in Royton, the first question at the survey is always where the waste can reach the soil stack.

Most of Greater Manchester is supplied with soft water. If that holds for your street in Royton, 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 pumped waste or macerator where gravity drainage is not possible, and only where the house already has a WC on gravity drainage
An extractor fan ducted to outside, sized to the room and wired with an overrun timer or humidistat
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

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.

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.

More about en-suites

En-suites in Royton: questions

How much does an en-suite cost in Royton?

An en-suite in Royton usually costs £4,200–£8,500 including VAT. Where you land in that range depends on the size of the room, whether the layout changes and the products you choose. After the free survey you get an itemised written quote, and the price is fixed in writing once the layout and products are agreed.

Who handles building control for an en-suite in Royton?

Building control for Royton is handled by the local council or an approved inspector. If your job needs sign-off — for example a new circuit, new drainage or a new extractor where there was none — we tell you at the survey and handle the notification as part of the work.

How long does an en-suite take?

Allow 4–8 working days on site for most jobs, plus the lead time for products after you approve the quote. We give you a day-by-day plan before work starts in Royton.

Is the home survey in Royton really free?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

Does an en-suite add value to a house?

An en-suite usually makes a house more appealing to buyers, especially where there is only one other bathroom, but we cannot tell you how much it will add to your price; a local estate agent is the right person to ask. What it does reliably is end the queue for the main bathroom.
