Working in Greenock

We cover every part of Greenock, including PA14, PA15, PA16 and 1 more postcode districts, and nearby Helensburgh (4.2 miles) and Dunoon (6.4 miles).

In Greenock, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If the en-suite in your Greenock 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 Greenock only after checking the drainage route on site, so the price reflects the work your house actually needs.

Most of Renfrewshire and Inverclyde is supplied with soft water. If that holds for your street in Greenock, 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

IP-rated lighting, a shaver socket and the electrics done by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
Stud walls with acoustic insulation and moisture-resistant board for a new en-suite
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

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.

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.

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.

Is the home survey in Greenock 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 PA14 in Greenock?

Yes. We cover all of Greenock, including PA14, PA15, PA16 and PA19, and nearby Helensburgh, Dunoon and Vale of Leven. 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.
