Working in Bedlington
We work right across Bedlington — NE22, NE24 and NE62 — and in neighbouring Cramlington and Blyth.
Bedlington gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If someone in your Bedlington home is finding the bath side harder to step over, a low or level-access tray removes the problem. For Bedlington houses with only one bath, we talk through whether to keep it before you decide.
Water across much of Northumberland is soft. If that holds for your street in Bedlington, 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
- A low-profile tray, or a former and tanking for a level-access floor
- Boarding, tanking and re-tiling of the shower walls
- 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.
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.
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.
