Working in Southall
We cover every part of Southall, including UB1, UB2, UB5 and 1 more postcode districts, and nearby Greenford (1.5 miles) and Heston (1.8 miles).
London homes in Southall often mean stairs, permits and neighbours below; we plan the logistics as carefully as the bathroom. Before a new bath is ordered for a Southall home, we measure the stairs and landing as well as the opening. If the bath in your Southall home is the only thing letting the bathroom down, a swap in one or two days avoids a full refit.
Supplies across most of Greater London are very hard. Taps, plug wastes and toilet pans scale up quickly, so chrome copes better than matt black, and a removable aerator is worth having. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- New flexible connectors or pipework, with isolation valves on the hot and cold supplies
- Leak testing at the waste, overflow and taps, taking the old bath away and a final clean
- A survey of the bath opening, the floor, the waste route, the supplies and the tiles around the bath
- Tile repairs or re-tiling around the bath, and a fixed screen where there is a shower over it
Decisions to make first
Acrylic or steel
Acrylic is warm to the touch, light and the usual choice; thicker, reinforced acrylic flexes less. Enamelled steel is rigid and hard-wearing but feels colder, and needs sound-deadening pads to stop it drumming.
Shower bath
A P-shaped or L-shaped bath is wider at the shower end, giving room to stand and space for a fixed screen instead of a curtain.
Rules that apply in England
In England, Part G limits the hot water to a new bath to 48 °C at the outlet, usually with a thermostatic mixing valve, but only in a new dwelling or one created by a change of use. It does not apply to a replacement bath in an existing home, though a thermostatic valve is still sensible where children or older people bathe. New wiring for a shower over the bath or new lights is notifiable under Part P.
