Working in Peacehaven

We work right across Peacehaven — BN10 — and in neighbouring Rottingdean and Seaford.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Peacehaven: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Peacehaven 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. If someone in your Peacehaven home is finding the bath side harder to step over, a low or level-access tray removes the problem.

Supplies across most of East Sussex are hard. If your supply in Peacehaven 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

  • Repair or replacement of floorboards where the bath has left them soft or damaged
  • A thermostatic shower valve, with the pipework moved for the new head position
  • A survey of the bath space, the waste position, the floor and your water system
  • Removal of the bath, panel and taps, and disposal of the waste

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.

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.

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.

Bath to shower conversions in Peacehaven: questions

What is the price of a bath to shower conversion in Peacehaven?

A bath to shower conversion in Peacehaven usually costs £2,200–£5,600 including VAT. The final figure comes down to what you choose and what we find at the survey; your written quote lists every item so you can see where the money goes.

Do you cover BN10 in Peacehaven?

Yes. We cover all of Peacehaven, including BN10, and nearby Rottingdean, Seaford and Lewes. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Peacehaven?

Supplies across most of East Sussex are hard. If your supply in Peacehaven 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.

Who handles building control for a bath to shower conversion in Peacehaven?

Building control for Peacehaven is handled by the local council or an approved inspector. If your job needs sign-off — for example a new circuit, new drainage or a new extractor where there was none — we tell you at the survey and handle the notification as part of the work.

Can I keep my existing tiles?

Rarely around the shower itself. Taking the bath out usually damages the bottom rows of tiles, and the shower walls need tanking before tiling, so the shower area is re-tiled. Tiles elsewhere in the room can often stay; matching an old tile is hard, so a deliberately contrasting shower tile is often the neater answer.
