Planning your en-suite in Perton

Live in a conservation area or a listed building in Perton? Check with South Staffordshire 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.

Insulating the new stud wall helps reduce noise between the en-suite and the bedroom.
New circuits, and changes to circuits near the shower, are notifiable electrical work under Part P.
En-suites without a window need an extract fan that runs on for around 15 minutes after use.

Options to consider in Perton

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 Perton?

Guide prices start at £3,800 and run to £15,000 depending on size and specification. A new 1.5 m × 2.2 m shower en-suite formed in a double bedroom near the soil stack: around £7,000–£9,500.

Which postcodes in Perton do you work in?

We cover WV6 and the streets around them. If you're on the edge of Perton, neighbouring Tettenhall and Codsall are covered too.

How long does it take to add an en-suite?

A new en-suite usually takes 2–3 weeks on site, and a refit of an existing one 1–2 weeks. Allow time beforehand for the Building Regulations application on new en-suites, and for the suite and tiles to arrive. Plaster needs to dry before tiling, which is built into the programme, so it doesn't catch you out.

Does South Staffordshire Council need to approve my en-suite?

You won't usually need planning permission, but the work must meet Building Regulations. Building control in Perton is provided by South Staffordshire Council or a registered building control approver, and some work is self-certified by registered installers.
