Working in Grimsby

As well as Grimsby itself (DN31, DN32 and DN34), we survey in Cleethorpes, Louth and Kingston upon Hull.

Grimsby has a wide mix of house ages, so the survey is where we spot old lead pipework, weak joists or a tight soil stack. If your Grimsby en-suite fan just blows into the loft, we can duct it properly to outside as part of the refit. If you live in a Grimsby flat, check the lease before planning a new en-suite, as freeholder consent is often needed for new drainage and vents.

Water across much of Lincolnshire is hard. If your supply in Grimsby 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

A pumped waste or macerator where gravity drainage is not possible, and only where the house already has a WC on gravity drainage
IP-rated lighting, a shaver socket and the electrics done by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
A survey that traces the route from the en-suite to the soil stack and checks the fall the waste pipes would need
A shower tray or level-access former, an enclosure or walk-in panel, and a thermostatic valve

Decisions to make first

Shower size

A 900 mm square tray is a comfortable minimum for an enclosure. In a long, narrow room, a 1200 by 800 mm walk-in tray with one glass panel feels far more generous.

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.

More about en-suites

En-suites in Grimsby: questions

What is the price of an en-suite in Grimsby?

An en-suite in Grimsby usually costs £4,300–£8,600 including VAT. Expect the lower end for a like-for-like job with standard products, and the upper end if things move or you choose premium finishes. Your quote is itemised and fixed in writing once agreed.

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 Grimsby.

Is the home survey in Grimsby 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 DN31 in Grimsby?

Yes. We cover all of Grimsby, including DN31, DN32 and DN34, and nearby Cleethorpes, Louth and Kingston upon Hull. 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.
