Working in Aston

We work right across Aston — B6, B7 and B19 — and in neighbouring Birmingham and Washwood Heath.

Homes in and around Aston vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If your Aston en-suite fan just blows into the loft, we can duct it properly to outside as part of the refit. For an en-suite in Aston, the first question at the survey is always where the waste can reach the soil stack.

Hardness differs from one part of the West Midlands to the next. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Aston. 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 door that suits a tight space: inward, outward, sliding or a pocket door
A pumped waste or macerator where gravity drainage is not possible, and only where the house already has a WC on gravity drainage
A survey that traces the route from the en-suite to the soil stack and checks the fall the waste pipes would need

Decisions to make first

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.

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.

More about en-suites

En-suites in Aston: questions

How much does an en-suite cost in Aston?

An en-suite in Aston usually costs £4,400–£8,800 including VAT. Where you land in that range depends on the size of the room, whether the layout changes and the products you choose. After the free survey you get an itemised written quote, and the price is fixed in writing once the layout and products are agreed.

How long does an en-suite take?

Allow 4–8 working days on site for most jobs, plus the lead time for products after you approve the quote. We give you a day-by-day plan before work starts in Aston.

Is the home survey in Aston 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 B6 in Aston?

Yes. We cover all of Aston, including B6, B7 and B19, and nearby Birmingham, Washwood Heath and Smethwick. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Does an en-suite add value to a house?

An en-suite usually makes a house more appealing to buyers, especially where there is only one other bathroom, but we cannot tell you how much it will add to your price; a local estate agent is the right person to ask. What it does reliably is end the queue for the main bathroom.
