Will upgrading the ensuite affect my NHBC warranty in Longton?

The warranty on the wider house isn't affected — only the work we do is our responsibility, and we back that with our own written guarantee. We work to the developer's as-builts wherever supplied.

Can you upgrade to a bigger shower tray?

Yes — most Longton new-build ensuites will take an 1800×800 or 1200×800 tray after a small stud-work adjustment. We check the pump/gravity supply first so pressure keeps up.

How long does a new-build ensuite upgrade take?

Typically 4–6 working days for a full strip and refit. Cosmetic upgrades (retile, new screen, new brassware) run 2–3 days. Fixed quote after survey.

Can you match the rest of the house style?

Yes — we bring tile and stone samples to your Longton home so the ensuite reads as intentional, not bolted-on. Colour-matched to floors and joinery where you want it.

Do you provide a fixed-price quote before starting?

Always. After a free home visit in Longton we send a fully itemised, fixed-price quotation — no surprises on invoice day.

Will an ensuite add value to a Victorian terrace?

An ensuite in a Longton Victorian terrace works best when carved out of an over-stairs cupboard or a corner of the rear bedroom — adding an extra room of usability rather than just a fitting.

Most new-build ensuites in Longton come from the developer with a 1700×760 tray, a low-pressure electric shower, one basin, and 3-course tile splashbacks. Livable, but not what people want two years in.

We upgrade without invalidating the NHBC warranty on the surrounding fabric — clear scope of work, waste and water lines mapped to the developer's as-builts, and a photo record of every hidden joint before boarding goes back on.

Ensuite Installation in Longton isn't a one-template job — every house we walk into reveals something different.
