Service overview

The full picture, before you commit a penny.

What it is

A full turnkey en-suite: strip-out, first-fix plumbing and electrics, waste re-routes, plaster and boarding, waterproof tanking, tiling, wall-hung sanitary-ware, screen or enclosure, sealing, extraction and final making-good, completed by one in-house team.

Who it's for

Homeowners in Newcastle, Gateshead, Sunderland, North Tyneside, Northumberland, Teesside, Surrey, Brighton and Hove adding an en-suite to a master bedroom, converting a loft or garage bedroom, or refurbishing tired existing en-suites and cloakrooms.

When you need it

When adding value ahead of sale (en-suites materially improve valuations), converting a spare room or loft into a master suite, or replacing a leaking, mouldy or dated en-suite that's dragging down the bedroom it serves.

Why use a specialist

En-suites are the highest-risk small room in the house: they're built above living space, run continuously for years, and are almost always internal (no external wall for windows). Waterproofing, extraction and correct falls must be right, a leaking en-suite quietly destroys the ceiling below.

The cost of getting it wrong

What happens when this job is rushed, cheapened, or ignored.

An en-suite installed cheaply above a bedroom or lounge does its damage silently, through joists, into ceilings, along cavity walls, for months before anyone notices. By the time a stain appears, the flooring is rotten and the ceiling below needs replacing.

Risks & escalating costs

  • Concealed cistern frames fitted without proper access panels turn a small leak into a full wall strip-out.
  • Wall-hung pans on under-specified frames sag, crack tiles at the fixing points and eventually pull away.
  • Walk-in shower trays without correct falls pool water at the door, every use tracks moisture out into the room.
  • Internal en-suites without ducted extraction breed mould that spreads into the master bedroom.
  • Under-specified electrics near zones 1 and 2 are a safety hazard and invalidate insurance.

Common mistakes we fix

  • Tiling straight onto plasterboard without a tanking membrane in the wet zone.
  • Choosing sanitary-ware before the layout is finalised, soil pipe positions rarely move without cost.
  • Skipping a shaver socket / mirror light circuit, then chasing walls after tiling to add them.
  • Fitting a fan too small for the room volume to save £80, then paying for mould remediation.
  • DIY electrics in bathroom zones, Part P notifiable work carried out unlawfully.

  2. 02

    3D CAD Design

    Full 3D visuals showing sanitary-ware layout, tile choices, shower configuration, storage and lighting, so you can react to something real, not a mood board.

    Typical en-suite installs run 6–10 working days on site. Water and power isolated only during the specific hours we need them.

  5. 05

    Sign-Off & Guarantee

    Full walk-through, leak test, extraction test, snag list closed. One-year workmanship guarantee; sanitary-ware carries its own manufacturer cover.

Why it's worth doing properly

Concrete outcomes, not generic promises.

Materially Adds Value

Estate agents consistently value a well-executed master en-suite at multiples of its build cost, it's the single highest-ROI small refurbishment a homeowner can commission.

Properly Tanked, Properly Sealed

Wet-zone walls tanked with a waterproof membrane before tiling, the single biggest factor in an en-suite lasting 15+ years without failure above a habitable room.

Compliant Wet-Zone Electrics

All electrics installed and certified by our NICEIC-approved electrician to Part P, RCD-protected, bonded, and correctly zoned. IP-rated fittings throughout.

Extraction Done Right

Fans specified to room volume, ducted in insulated flex to an external wall, never into a loft or ceiling void. Removes moisture properly and prevents bedroom mould.

One Fixed Price

Every quote is a single fixed figure. If we find something behind a wall we didn't expect, we tell you before we spend your money on it.

One Team, One Guarantee

Plumber, electrician, tiler and plasterer all coordinated in-house. No trade-blaming when something needs revisiting.

The detail

Everything that goes into a Bridgeway en-suites.

En-suites are compact but service-dense. Below is a summary of the choices, materials and technical detail we walk you through during design.

Walk-in showers & wet-zones

Formed floor with correct falls to a linear or centre drain, fully tanked substrate, slip-rated tiles selected for zone 1. Frameless screens or full walk-in wet-rooms depending on joist build-up.

Wall-hung sanitary-ware

Concealed cistern frames from Geberit, Grohe and equivalents on solid-fixed steel supports, never lightweight kits. Removable access panels behind matching tiled openings.

Tiling: substrates & materials

Porcelain and ceramic laid on tanked cement board or backer board in wet zones. Grouts and adhesives specified by zone, one wrong adhesive is a full re-tile 18 months later.

Underfloor heating

Electric UFH matting is straightforward and effective in en-suites, pair it with a Wi-Fi thermostat and it costs pennies a day to run for the hour you actually use it.

Extraction & humidity control

Fan sized to room volume (litres per second), ducted to external wall in insulated flex, humidistat-controlled where possible. Non-negotiable for internal en-suites above habitable rooms.

Loft & garage en-suites

For conversions we handle soil pipe re-routing (macerator or gravity), joist reinforcement for tray build-up, and dormer or Velux positioning for extraction routing.
