Working in Marlow
We work right across Marlow — SL7 — and in neighbouring Maidenhead and High Wycombe.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Marlow: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Marlow bathroom was refitted recently and you like the rest of it, we can convert just the bath area and finish the new tiling neatly against the old. If the bath in your Marlow home is mainly used for storing things, a walk-in shower in the same space is a quick, contained job.
Most of Buckinghamshire has hard water. If your supply in Marlow is the same, limescale on shower glass and heads is a real issue: easy-clean glass, rub-clean nozzles and a squeegee make a big difference. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Silicone, a full-flow test and a tidy finish where the new tiling meets the old
- Grab rails and a fold-down seat if you want them
- A low-profile tray, or a former and tanking for a level-access floor
- Removal of the bath, panel and taps, and disposal of the waste
Decisions to make first
Your only bath?
If this is the only bath in the house, think about whether you, or a future buyer, will want one before you commit.
Low tray or level floor
A low-profile tray has a small lip. A level-access floor removes the step altogether but needs a former, tanking and a linear drain.
Rules that apply in England
In England, adding an electric shower usually means a new circuit, which is notifiable under Part P, as is any change to the wiring in the bathroom. Where the conversion is an adaptation for a disabled person, a Disabled Facilities Grant of up to £30,000 may help, but the council must approve it before work starts.
