Working in Bebington
In Bebington we cover CH42, CH62 and CH63; we also cover Birkenhead, 3 miles away, and Heswall.
Homes in and around Bebington vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If your Bebington 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. If you are applying for a grant towards a bath to shower conversion in Bebington, we provide the itemised written quote the council will ask for.
Most of Merseyside is supplied with soft water. If that holds for your street in Bebington, 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 thermostatic shower valve, with the pipework moved for the new head position
- Silicone, a full-flow test and a tidy finish where the new tiling meets the old
- Grab rails and a fold-down seat if you want them
- Boarding, tanking and re-tiling of the shower walls
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.
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.
