Working in Market Harborough

We cover every part of Market Harborough, including LE16, and nearby Corby (9.8 miles) and Kettering (9.9 miles).

Market Harborough gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. We quote new en-suites in Market Harborough only after checking the drainage route on site, so the price reflects the work your house actually needs. If your Market Harborough home has one bathroom and a good-sized main bedroom, an en-suite is often the change that eases the morning queue.

Most of Northamptonshire has hard water. If your supply in Market Harborough 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 shower tray or level-access former, an enclosure or walk-in panel, and a thermostatic valve
A survey that traces the route from the en-suite to the soil stack and checks the fall the waste pipes would need
Tiling, silicone, testing and making good on the bedroom side of any new walls
An extractor fan ducted to outside, sized to the room and wired with an overrun timer or humidistat

Decisions to make first

Night lighting

A mirror light or low-level LED strip on its own switch lets you use the en-suite at night without the full glare of the ceiling lights.

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.

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 Market Harborough 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.
