Working in Bishopbriggs
In Bishopbriggs we cover G64; we also cover Glasgow, 3.2 miles away, and Kirkintilloch.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Bishopbriggs: free survey, written quote, one team. We check the floor under the bath during a Bishopbriggs survey where we can, because old leaks can leave soft boards. If the bath in your Bishopbriggs home is mainly used for storing things, a walk-in shower in the same space is a quick, contained job.
Supplies across most of Greater Glasgow are soft. If that holds for your street in Bishopbriggs, 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
- Removal of the bath, panel and taps, and disposal of the waste
- 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.
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.
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.
