Working in Lytham St Annes

In Lytham St Annes we cover FY4 and FY8; we also cover Blackpool, 5.6 miles away, and Poulton-le-Fylde.

Homes in and around Lytham St Annes vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If your Lytham St Annes 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 Lytham St Annes, the first question at the survey is always where the waste can reach the soil stack.

Water across much of Lancashire is soft. If that holds for your street in Lytham St Annes, 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
Tiling, silicone, testing and making good on the bedroom side of any new walls
Stud walls with acoustic insulation and moisture-resistant board for a new en-suite

Decisions to make first

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.

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.

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.

Is the home survey in Lytham St Annes really free?

How much space do you need for an en-suite?

As a rough guide, about 2.5 m² is the practical minimum for a shower, basin and WC, for example a space of around 1.2 m by 2.1 m. The exact layout depends on where the door, window and soil stack are, so we test it against your measurements rather than a rule of thumb.
