Working in Tiverton
We cover every part of Tiverton, including EX16, and nearby Exeter (12.4 miles) and Taunton (18.6 miles).
Tiverton gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. We check the floor under the bath during a Tiverton survey where we can, because old leaks can leave soft boards. For Tiverton houses with only one bath, we talk through whether to keep it before you decide.
Supplies across most of Devon are soft. If that holds for your street in Tiverton, 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
- Repair or replacement of floorboards where the bath has left them soft or damaged
- A glass enclosure, walk-in panel or frameless screen
- Removal of the bath, panel and taps, and disposal of the waste
- Boarding, tanking and re-tiling of the shower walls
Decisions to make first
Enclosure or walk-in
An enclosure with a door keeps all the water in and suits a shorter space. A walk-in panel makes the most of the full 1700 mm length an old bath leaves.
Safety extras
A fold-down seat, grab rails and a slip-resistant tray cost little at the time of fitting and are much harder to add later.
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.
