Working in Bodmin
As well as Bodmin itself (PL31), we survey in St Austell, Newquay and Truro.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Bodmin: free survey, written quote, one team. For Bodmin houses with only one bath, we talk through whether to keep it before you decide. If the bath in your Bodmin home is mainly used for storing things, a walk-in shower in the same space is a quick, contained job.
Most of Cornwall is supplied with soft water. If that holds for your street in Bodmin, limescale on shower glass and heads builds up slowly and a squeegee after use is usually enough. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- A glass enclosure, walk-in panel or frameless screen
- Repair or replacement of floorboards where the bath has left them soft or damaged
- A survey of the bath space, the waste position, the floor and your water system
- Grab rails and a fold-down seat if you want them
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.
