Working in Felling
We work right across Felling — NE8, NE9 and NE10 — and in neighbouring Gateshead and Newcastle upon Tyne.
In Felling, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If your Felling en-suite fan just blows into the loft, we can duct it properly to outside as part of the refit. If your Felling home has one bathroom and a good-sized main bedroom, an en-suite is often the change that eases the morning queue.
Most of Tyne and Wear is supplied with soft water. If that holds for your street in Felling, 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
- A door that suits a tight space: inward, outward, sliding or a pocket door
- A shower tray or level-access former, an enclosure or walk-in panel, and a thermostatic valve
- Tiling, silicone, testing and making good on the bedroom side of any new walls
- A short-projection or wall-hung WC and a compact basin chosen to keep the floor clear
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.
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 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.
