Working in Bartley Green
We work right across Bartley Green — B29, B32 and B62 — and in neighbouring Halesowen and Smethwick.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Bartley Green: free survey, written quote, one team. We check the floor under the bath during a Bartley Green survey where we can, because old leaks can leave soft boards. If you are applying for a grant towards a bath to shower conversion in Bartley Green, we provide the itemised written quote the council will ask for.
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 Bartley Green. 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
- Boarding, tanking and re-tiling of the shower walls
- A thermostatic shower valve, with the pipework moved for the new head position
- Removal of the bath, panel and taps, and disposal of the waste
Decisions to make first
Mixer or electric shower
A thermostatic mixer draws on your hot-water system. An electric shower heats cold mains water as it flows and needs its own circuit.
Enclosure or walk-in
An enclosure with a door keeps all the water in and suits a shorter space. A walk-in panel makes the most of the full 1700 mm length an old bath leaves.
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.
