Working in Blantyre

We work right across Blantyre — G71, G72 and ML3 — and in neighbouring Cambuslang and Hamilton.

Blantyre gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If someone in your Blantyre home is finding the bath side harder to step over, a low or level-access tray removes the problem. If your Blantyre 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 Lanarkshire is soft. If that holds for your street in Blantyre, 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

  • 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
  • Grab rails and a fold-down seat if you want them
  • A glass enclosure, walk-in panel or frameless screen

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.

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 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.

More about bath to shower conversions

Bath to shower conversions in Blantyre: questions

How much does a bath to shower conversion cost in Blantyre?

A bath to shower conversion in Blantyre usually costs £1,900–£4,800 including VAT. Expect the lower end for a like-for-like job with standard products, and the upper end if things move or you choose premium finishes. Your quote is itemised and fixed in writing once agreed.

Do you cover G71 in Blantyre?

Yes. We cover all of Blantyre, including G71, G72 and ML3, and nearby Cambuslang, Hamilton and Bellshill. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Blantyre?

Water across much of Lanarkshire is soft. If that holds for your street in Blantyre, 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.

Will a bath to shower conversion in Blantyre need a building warrant?

Usually not for a straight refit. Building warrants are issued by the local council's building standards service, and forming a new bathroom, changing drainage or structural work can need one. We tell you at the survey and handle the application if one is needed.

Can I keep my existing tiles?

Rarely around the shower itself. Taking the bath out usually damages the bottom rows of tiles, and the shower walls need tanking before tiling, so the shower area is re-tiled. Tiles elsewhere in the room can often stay; matching an old tile is hard, so a deliberately contrasting shower tile is often the neater answer.
