Loft Shower Room Conversion in Longton
Compact, well-laid-out ensuites built into bedrooms and loft spaces.
A loft shower room is a different beast to a loft ensuite. In a Longton conversion the eaves eat half the standing area, the waste has to fight gravity down to the stack, and every millimetre of head height matters at the shower door.
We plan the layout around the ridge line, the purlins and the Velux position — not around a standard tray. The result is a shower room that actually works to stand in, not a corner where you duck.
When Longton homeowners ask us about ensuite installation, the first thing we look at is the room itself.

Loft Shower Room Conversion FAQs — Longton
- Do I need a pumped waste for a loft shower in Longton?
- Usually yes — most Longton loft conversions sit above the stack take-off, so a Saniflo or Pumpflush unit handles the shower and basin waste back down to the main run.
- What tray size works under a coombed ceiling?
- 800×800 or 900×760 with the fixed panel on the low side is our standard Longton loft spec. Bigger trays exist but rarely improve usable head height.
- Can you fit the shower under the ridge?
- That's the goal — put full-height activity (standing under the head) directly under the ridge line, and low-height activity (WC, storage) under the eaves. Standard on Longton loft jobs.
- How long does a loft shower room take?
- 8–12 working days on a Longton conversion where the loft shell is already boarded and lit.
- How quickly can you start a job in Longton?
- Lead time is usually two to five weeks from a confirmed quote, depending on the spec and our current schedule across the Staffordshire side.
- Are you fully insured for work in Longton?
- Yes — we hold full public liability cover and every job in Longton comes with a written workmanship guarantee.
