Working in Keynsham
In Keynsham we cover BS31; we also cover Kingswood, 2.7 miles away, and Mangotsfield.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Keynsham: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Keynsham 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. For Keynsham houses with only one bath, we talk through whether to keep it before you decide.
Supplies across most of Somerset are hard. If your supply in Keynsham is the same, limescale on shower glass and heads is a real issue: easy-clean glass, rub-clean nozzles and a squeegee make a big difference. 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
- Removal of the bath, panel and taps, and disposal of the waste
- A survey of the bath space, the waste position, the floor and your water system
- A thermostatic shower valve, with the pipework moved for the new head position
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.
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.
