The en-suite spec, ordered by what matters

Every Farnworth en-suite project we quote hinges on the same set of questions:

  • Very small window sizes (600mm and under)
  • Shower steam right on the glass
  • Obscure-glass privacy that still lets light in
  • No space for reveal-fit — face-fit only

Waterproof ABS only — an en-suite window sits closer to the shower than a main bathroom's usually does.

Our default en-suite specification

Across Farnworth en-suites we mostly fit:

  • Café-style ABS
  • Full-height ABS
  • Custom-shaped for velux and gable

Small en-suite windows suit café-style — half-height covers the fixture line, top stays clear for extraction.

63mm louvres suit the smaller opening proportions; 89mm looks oversized on a 600mm window.

Details that matter

  • Small en-suite windows suit café-style — half-height covers the fixture line, top stays clear for extraction.
  • 63mm louvres suit the smaller opening proportions; 89mm looks oversized on a 600mm window.
  • Face-fit works when the reveal is too shallow (25mm or less) — we template on survey.

Property-fit proof

A specification shaped by village cottage openings

We start with the opening, not a stock package. In Farnworth, that means accounting for village cottage, 1950s semi, modern infill and selecting frames, panel widths and materials around those constraints.

Common Questions

Frequently asked

Which shutters suit a village cottage en-suite?

Café-style ABS is the usual default. Small en-suite windows suit café-style — half-height covers the fixture line, top stays clear for extraction.

Do you fit en-suite shutters in Farnworth?

Yes — WA8 9 are on our regular survey run. 22 min from Stockton Heath, and en-suites are one of the most-quoted rooms across Farnworth.

What does a Farnworth en-suite shutter project usually cost?

£320–£520 per en-suite window. Whole-room Farnworth projects sit inside the £1,500 – £3,400 band across the house. Every figure fixed and 90-day valid.

There's no reveal depth — can you still fit shutters?

Yes — face-fit shutters bracket to the front of the frame. We measure the fixture surround on survey day. In Farnworth, that's the answer for the village cottages and 1950s semi we survey most weeks.

Will it survive being right next to the shower?

ABS shutters and PVC blinds both do — same materials used in gym showers and public leisure centres. Hardwood and fabric will not. In Farnworth, that's the answer for the village cottages and 1950s semi we survey most weeks.
