Working in Rotherham

We cover every part of Rotherham, including S60, S61, S64 and 1 more postcode districts, and nearby Rawmarsh (2.2 miles) and Wath upon Dearne (5 miles).

Rotherham 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 you live in a Rotherham flat, check the lease before planning a new en-suite, as freeholder consent is often needed for new drainage and vents. If your Rotherham home has one bathroom and a good-sized main bedroom, an en-suite is often the change that eases the morning queue.

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

What the job includes

An extractor fan ducted to outside, sized to the room and wired with an overrun timer or humidistat
A short-projection or wall-hung WC and a compact basin chosen to keep the floor clear
A survey that traces the route from the en-suite to the soil stack and checks the fall the waste pipes would need
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.

Noise

Acoustic insulation in the stud walls and a quiet fan make a real difference when one of you showers early while the other is still asleep.

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 Rotherham really free?

Do you cover S60 in Rotherham?

Yes. We cover all of Rotherham, including S60, S61, S64 and S65, and nearby Rawmarsh, Wath upon Dearne and Mexborough. 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.
