En-suite bathrooms in Fazeley

What should you know before starting in Fazeley?

Live in a conservation area or a listed building in Fazeley? Check with Lichfield District Council before changing the outside of your home. Otherwise the main rules for your en-suite are Building Regulations, and we'll explain at the survey which certificates you'll receive.

Roughly 1.5 m × 2 m of floor space is enough for a compact shower en-suite.
En-suites without a window need an extract fan that runs on for around 15 minutes after use.
Building control approval for a new en-suite can come from Lichfield District Council or a registered building control approver.

Options to consider in Fazeley

Loft conversion en-suite

Most loft conversions include a shower room for the new bedroom. Head height decides where the shower can go, often within the dormer, and the waste ideally connects to the existing soil stack where it passes through the roof space. Planning it with the loft design keeps the plumbing simple.

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.

Your questions answered

How much disruption will there be in the bedroom?

The bedroom will be a work area for most of the job, so it's best to sleep elsewhere if you can. We move and cover furniture, protect the carpet or floor, and seal the doorway to keep dust in. Floorboards may be lifted along the waste route, sometimes into a neighbouring room, and we tell you in advance.

Which postcodes in Fazeley do you work in?

We cover B78 and the streets around them. If you're on the edge of Fazeley, neighbouring Tamworth and Polesworth are covered too.
