Which rules apply in Wallington?
The rules below are the England-wide position for this kind of work. Councils add their own standards and schemes on top, so we always check the address in Wallington before we price.
- Floor area under a ceiling lower than 1.5 m does not count towards the room size, and many councils set larger sizes.
- National rules ask for an adequate number of bathrooms, WCs and basins and suitably located kitchens; numeric ratios are set by each council.
- Building regulations cover structural changes, new partitions, ensuite drainage, fire-resisting construction and notifiable electrical work.
- Electrical installations must be inspected and tested at least every 5 years; remedial work is due within 28 days, or sooner if the report says so.

Questions about ensuite installation in Wallington
Can an ensuite go anywhere?
It needs a route for waste water. Gravity drainage is best; where that is not possible, a macerator or pump can work. We check at the survey.
Do you cover all of Wallington?
Yes. We work across Wallington and the SM5 and SM6 postcode areas, plus the rest of Greater London. Nearby places we also cover include Carshalton, Sutton, South Croydon.
Does a shared house in Wallington need an HMO licence?
In England, a mandatory licence is needed for 5 or more people from 2 or more households. Smaller HMOs can need a licence where the council runs additional licensing, which is common in towns with many shared houses. Check the council’s website for the address.
