Working in Annan
In Annan we cover DG12; we also cover Dumfries, 15.1 miles away, and Locharbriggs.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Annan: free survey, written quote, one team. If someone in your Annan home is finding the bath side harder to step over, a low or level-access tray removes the problem. For Annan houses with only one bath, we talk through whether to keep it before you decide.
Most of Dumfries and Galloway is supplied with soft water. If that holds for your street in Annan, 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 thermostatic shower valve, with the pipework moved for the new head position
- Boarding, tanking and re-tiling of the shower walls
- Repair or replacement of floorboards where the bath has left them soft or damaged
- Silicone, a full-flow test and a tidy finish where the new tiling meets the old
Decisions to make first
Mixer or electric shower
A thermostatic mixer draws on your hot-water system. An electric shower heats cold mains water as it flows and needs its own circuit.
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 Scotland
In Scotland, a bath to shower swap in the same position rarely needs a building warrant, but a level-access floor that alters drainage or structure may. For adaptation help, councils run a Scheme of Assistance rather than Disabled Facilities Grants.
