Working in Currie
As well as Currie itself (EH11, EH13 and EH14), we survey in Balerno, Colinton and Penicuik.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Currie: free survey, written quote, one team. For Currie houses with only one bath, we talk through whether to keep it before you decide. If someone in your Currie home is finding the bath side harder to step over, a low or level-access tray removes the problem.
Most of Edinburgh is supplied with soft water. If that holds for your street in Currie, 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
- Silicone, a full-flow test and a tidy finish where the new tiling meets the old
- A glass enclosure, walk-in panel or frameless screen
- A thermostatic shower valve, with the pipework moved for the new head position
Decisions to make first
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.
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.
