Working in Great Sankey
We cover every part of Great Sankey, including WA5, and nearby Warrington (2.5 miles) and Newton-le-Willows (4.3 miles).
Homes in and around Great Sankey vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If the bath in your Great Sankey home is mainly used for storing things, a walk-in shower in the same space is a quick, contained job. We check the floor under the bath during a Great Sankey survey where we can, because old leaks can leave soft boards.
Supplies across most of Cheshire are moderately hard. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Great Sankey. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- 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
- A survey of the bath space, the waste position, the floor and your water system
- Repair or replacement of floorboards where the bath has left them soft or damaged
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.
How much to re-tile
Re-tile just the shower walls, or take the chance to re-tile the whole room so new and old tiles never have to match.
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.
