Working in Ripon

We cover every part of Ripon, including HG4, and nearby Harrogate (10 miles) and Northallerton (14.6 miles).

Ripon gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If you live in a Ripon flat, check the lease before planning a new en-suite, as freeholder consent is often needed for new drainage and vents. If your Ripon en-suite fan just blows into the loft, we can duct it properly to outside as part of the refit.

Most of North Yorkshire has moderately hard water. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Ripon. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

A survey that traces the route from the en-suite to the soil stack and checks the fall the waste pipes would need
A short-projection or wall-hung WC and a compact basin chosen to keep the floor clear
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

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 Ripon 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 HG4 in Ripon?

Yes. We cover all of Ripon, including HG4, and nearby Harrogate, Northallerton and Guiseley. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Ripon?

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.
