Working in Liverpool
We work right across Liverpool — L1, L2, L3 and 15 more postcode districts — and in neighbouring Birkenhead and Wallasey.
In a city the size of Liverpool, parking and access for a skip are worth sorting before the start date — we will ask at the survey. If the bath in your Liverpool home is mainly used for storing things, a walk-in shower in the same space is a quick, contained job. If someone in your Liverpool home is finding the bath side harder to step over, a low or level-access tray removes the problem.
Water across much of Merseyside is soft. If that holds for your street in Liverpool, 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 survey of the bath space, the waste position, the floor and your water system
- Removal of the bath, panel and taps, and disposal of the waste
- A low-profile tray, or a former and tanking for a level-access floor
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 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.
