Working in Hailsham
We cover every part of Hailsham, including BN27, and nearby Eastbourne (6.6 miles) and Seaford (9.2 miles).
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Hailsham: free survey, written quote, one team. We check the floor under the bath during a Hailsham survey where we can, because old leaks can leave soft boards. If your Hailsham bathroom was refitted recently and you like the rest of it, we can convert just the bath area and finish the new tiling neatly against the old.
Water across much of East Sussex is hard. If your supply in Hailsham is the same, limescale on shower glass and heads is a real issue: easy-clean glass, rub-clean nozzles and a squeegee make a big difference. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Silicone, a full-flow test and a tidy finish where the new tiling meets the old
- Boarding, tanking and re-tiling of the shower walls
- A glass enclosure, walk-in panel or frameless screen
- A survey of the bath space, the waste position, the floor and your water system
Decisions to make first
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.
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.
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.
