Working in Wellington

In Wellington we cover TF1 and TF5; we also cover Telford, 3.3 miles away, and Shrewsbury.

Wellington gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. For Wellington houses with only one bath, we talk through whether to keep it before you decide. If someone in your Wellington home is finding the bath side harder to step over, a low or level-access tray removes the problem.

Supplies across most of Shropshire are moderately hard. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Wellington. 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
  • A low-profile tray, or a former and tanking for a level-access floor
  • Removal of the bath, panel and taps, and disposal of the waste
  • Silicone, a full-flow test and a tidy finish where the new tiling meets the old

Decisions to make first

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.

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.

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.

Is the water hard in Wellington?

Supplies across most of Shropshire are moderately hard. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Wellington. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

Who handles building control for a bath to shower conversion in Wellington?

Building control for Wellington is handled by the local council or an approved inspector. If your job needs sign-off — for example a new circuit, new drainage or a new extractor where there was none — we tell you at the survey and handle the notification as part of the work.

How long does a bath to shower conversion take?

Allow 2–6 working days on site for most jobs, plus the lead time for products after you approve the quote. We give you a day-by-day plan before work starts in Wellington.

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.
