Working in Harrow
In Harrow we cover HA1, HA2, HA3 and 2 more postcode districts; we also cover Brent, 2.2 miles away, and Wembley.
London homes in Harrow often mean stairs, permits and neighbours below; we plan the logistics as carefully as the bathroom. For Harrow houses with only one bath, we talk through whether to keep it before you decide. If the bath in your Harrow home is mainly used for storing things, a walk-in shower in the same space is a quick, contained job.
Water across much of Greater London is very hard. If your supply in Harrow 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
- A glass enclosure, walk-in panel or frameless screen
- A thermostatic shower valve, with the pipework moved for the new head position
- Boarding, tanking and re-tiling of the shower walls
- Grab rails and a fold-down seat if you want them
Decisions to make first
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.
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.
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.
