Working in Aldridge
We cover every part of Aldridge, including WS9, and nearby Walsall (3.1 miles) and Bloxwich (3.8 miles).
Homes in and around Aldridge vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. We check the floor under the bath during a Aldridge survey where we can, because old leaks can leave soft boards. If your Aldridge 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.
Hardness differs from one part of the West Midlands to the next. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Aldridge. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Boarding, tanking and re-tiling of the shower walls
- A glass enclosure, walk-in panel or frameless screen
- Grab rails and a fold-down seat if you want them
- A thermostatic shower valve, with the pipework moved for the new head position
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.
