Working in Ramsbottom
We work right across Ramsbottom — BL0 — and in neighbouring Bury and Haslingden.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Ramsbottom: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Ramsbottom 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. We check the floor under the bath during a Ramsbottom survey where we can, because old leaks can leave soft boards.
Most of Greater Manchester is supplied with soft water. If that holds for your street in Ramsbottom, 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 glass enclosure, walk-in panel or frameless screen
- Grab rails and a fold-down seat if you want them
- Silicone, a full-flow test and a tidy finish where the new tiling meets the old
- Repair or replacement of floorboards where the bath has left them soft or damaged
Decisions to make first
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.
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 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.
