Working in Portadown
We cover every part of Portadown, including BT62, and nearby Craigavon (2.8 miles) and Banbridge (8.2 miles).
Homes in and around Portadown vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. We check the floor under the bath during a Portadown survey where we can, because old leaks can leave soft boards. If the bath in your Portadown home is mainly used for storing things, a walk-in shower in the same space is a quick, contained job.
Supplies across most of County Armagh are soft. If that holds for your street in Portadown, 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 survey of the bath space, the waste position, the floor and your water system
- A glass enclosure, walk-in panel or frameless screen
- A thermostatic shower valve, with the pipework moved for the new head position
- Boarding, tanking and re-tiling of the shower walls
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 Northern Ireland
In Northern Ireland, building control is only involved if drainage, structure or ventilation change. Disabled Facilities Grants of up to £25,000 are available through the Housing Executive, and wiring should follow BS 7671.
