Working in Falkirk
We work right across Falkirk — FK1, FK2 and FK5 — and in neighbouring Grangemouth and Alloa.
Homes in and around Falkirk vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. We check the floor under the bath during a Falkirk survey where we can, because old leaks can leave soft boards. If your Falkirk 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.
Supplies across most of the Forth Valley are soft. If that holds for your street in Falkirk, 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
- A low-profile tray, or a former and tanking for a level-access floor
- 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
Decisions to make first
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.
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 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.
