Working in Walsall
As well as Walsall itself (WS1, WS2, WS4 and 1 more postcode districts), we survey in Wednesbury, Wednesfield and West Bromwich.
Walsall has a wide mix of house ages, so the survey is where we spot old lead pipework, weak joists or a tight soil stack. If someone in your Walsall home is finding the bath side harder to step over, a low or level-access tray removes the problem. If you are applying for a grant towards a bath to shower conversion in Walsall, 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 Walsall. 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
- 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
- A glass enclosure, walk-in panel or frameless screen
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.
