En-suite bathrooms in Bedworth

What should you know before starting in Bedworth?

This kind of work rarely needs planning permission, but it does have to comply with Building Regulations, and some parts must be certified by a registered installer or signed off by building control. In Bedworth, building control is provided by Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council or a registered building control approver (formerly an approved inspector).

Siting the en-suite close to the existing soil stack is usually the simplest and most reliable layout.
New circuits, and changes to circuits near the shower, are notifiable electrical work under Part P.
Cutting a doorway through a load-bearing wall needs a properly sized lintel and Building Regulations approval.

Options to consider in Bedworth

Refit of an existing en-suite

Stripping out an old en-suite and fitting a larger low-profile tray, a better shower, wall-hung furniture and good lighting can make a small room much more usable. Using the existing water and waste positions keeps costs down, and replacing old tray seals and grout lines removes common sources of leaks.

New en-suite in the main bedroom

A stud wall is built across part of the bedroom, usually along the wall nearest the soil stack, to create a shower room. Insulating the new wall helps keep noise down. A pocket door saves the space a swinging door needs, and a window or roof light inside the en-suite is a bonus, though not essential if extraction is right.

What does your en-suite cost in Bedworth?

Expect to budget between £3,800 and £15,000 depending on size and specification in Bedworth. A new 1.5 m × 2.2 m shower en-suite formed in a double bedroom near the soil stack: typically £7,000–£9,500.

Questions about en-suite bathrooms in Bedworth

Is there enough room for an en-suite in my bedroom?

A compact shower en-suite needs roughly 1.5 m × 2 m, and less with a corner shower and a wall-hung basin. The bigger question is drainage: an en-suite near the soil stack is simple, while one on the far side of the house may need a longer waste run or a pumped system. We measure and check the waste route at the survey before suggesting a layout.
