Working in Eastleigh
We cover every part of Eastleigh, including SO50 and SO53, and nearby Hedge End (4.3 miles) and Southampton (4.9 miles).
Homes in and around Eastleigh vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If the bath in your Eastleigh home is mainly used for storing things, a walk-in shower in the same space is a quick, contained job. If your Eastleigh 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.
Water across much of Hampshire is hard. If your supply in Eastleigh 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
- Repair or replacement of floorboards where the bath has left them soft or damaged
- Grab rails and a fold-down seat if you want them
- Removal of the bath, panel and taps, and disposal of the waste
- A survey of the bath space, the waste position, the floor and your water system
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.
Low tray or level floor
A low-profile tray has a small lip. A level-access floor removes the step altogether but needs a former, tanking and a linear drain.
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.
