Working in Coventry
As well as Coventry itself (CV1, CV2, CV3 and 3 more postcode districts), we survey in Kenilworth, Bedworth and Nuneaton.
Coventry is a big place with every kind of home, from terraces to flats to new builds, so we never price from a photo alone. We check the floor under the bath during a Coventry survey where we can, because old leaks can leave soft boards. For Coventry houses with only one bath, we talk through whether to keep it before you decide.
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 Coventry. 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
- Silicone, a full-flow test and a tidy finish where the new tiling meets the old
- 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
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.
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.
