Working in Wishaw

As well as Wishaw itself (ML2), we survey in Larkhall, Motherwell and Hamilton.

Homes in and around Wishaw vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If the en-suite in your Wishaw 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 Wishaw only after checking the drainage route on site, so the price reflects the work your house actually needs.

Supplies across most of Lanarkshire are soft. If that holds for your street in Wishaw, 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
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
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.

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 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.

More about en-suites

En-suites in Wishaw: questions

How much does an en-suite cost in Wishaw?

An en-suite in Wishaw usually costs £4,300–£8,600 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.

Is the home survey in Wishaw 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.

Do you cover ML2 in Wishaw?

Yes. We cover all of Wishaw, including ML2, and nearby Larkhall, Motherwell and Hamilton. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Wishaw?

Do I need building regulations approval for an en-suite?

A new en-suite usually does, because it involves new drainage, an extractor fan and new electrical circuits. A like-for-like refit of an existing en-suite normally does not, apart from any electrical work that is notifiable where you live. We tell you which parts apply at the survey.
