Working in Huyton
We cover every part of Huyton, including L14, L27 and L36, and nearby Prescot (2 miles) and Halewood (3.6 miles).
Homes in and around Huyton vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. For Huyton houses with only one bath, we talk through whether to keep it before you decide. We check the floor under the bath during a Huyton survey where we can, because old leaks can leave soft boards.
Water across much of Merseyside is soft. If that holds for your street in Huyton, 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
- Grab rails and a fold-down seat if you want them
- Repair or replacement of floorboards where the bath has left them soft or damaged
- A thermostatic shower valve, with the pipework moved for the new head position
- A survey of the bath space, the waste position, the floor and your water system
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.
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.
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.
