Working in Fareham

We cover every part of Fareham, including PO14, PO15 and PO16, and nearby Gosport (4.5 miles) and Portsmouth (5.3 miles).

In Fareham, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If your Fareham en-suite fan just blows into the loft, we can duct it properly to outside as part of the refit. We quote new en-suites in Fareham only after checking the drainage route on site, so the price reflects the work your house actually needs.

Water across much of Hampshire is hard. If your supply in Fareham 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

IP-rated lighting, a shaver socket and the electrics done by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
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 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.

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.

En-suites in Fareham: questions

How much should I budget for an en-suite in Fareham?

An en-suite in Fareham usually costs £5,000–£10,000 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.

Do you cover PO14 in Fareham?

Yes. We cover all of Fareham, including PO14, PO15 and PO16, and nearby Gosport, Portsmouth and Southsea. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Fareham?

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

Building control for Fareham 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.

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.
