Working in Greenford
We cover every part of Greenford, including UB1, UB5 and UB6, and nearby Northolt (1.5 miles) and Southall (1.5 miles).
London homes in Greenford often mean stairs, permits and neighbours below; we plan the logistics as carefully as the bathroom. If the bath in your Greenford home is mainly used for storing things, a walk-in shower in the same space is a quick, contained job. We check the floor under the bath during a Greenford survey where we can, because old leaks can leave soft boards.
Most of Greater London has very hard water. If your supply in Greenford 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
- 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
- A low-profile tray, or a former and tanking for a level-access floor
- A glass enclosure, walk-in panel or frameless screen
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.
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 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.
