Working in Hamilton

We work right across Hamilton — ML3 — and in neighbouring Motherwell and Blantyre.

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

Supplies across most of Lanarkshire are soft. If that holds for your street in Hamilton, 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
An extractor fan ducted to outside, sized to the room and wired with an overrun timer or humidistat
IP-rated lighting, a shaver socket and the electrics done by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
Stud walls with acoustic insulation and moisture-resistant board for a new en-suite

Decisions to make first

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.

Exposed or concealed valve

An exposed bar valve is quicker to fit and easy to service. A concealed valve looks cleaner but sits inside the wall, so plan how it will be reached for repairs.

Rules that apply in Scotland

In Scotland, forming a new en-suite may need a building warrant because it creates a new bathroom and alters drainage; refitting an existing one rarely does. The Technical Handbook uses the same 15 litres per second extract rate for a bathroom, and the electrics should be tested and certified to BS 7671.

Is the home survey in Hamilton really free?

Do you cover ML3 in Hamilton?

Yes. We cover all of Hamilton, including ML3, and nearby Motherwell, Blantyre and Larkhall. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Can you put an en-suite anywhere?

Almost anywhere the waste can reach the soil stack. Gravity drainage needs a steady fall in the pipe, so the further the en-suite is from the stack, the more depth you need under the floor or behind boxing. Where that is not possible, a pumped waste or macerator can be used if the home already has a WC on gravity drainage. Our guide to adding an en-suite covers this in more detail.
