Working in Elland
As well as Elland itself (HD3, HX4 and HX5), we survey in Halifax, Brighouse and Huddersfield.
Elland gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If your Elland 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. If the bath in your Elland home is mainly used for storing things, a walk-in shower in the same space is a quick, contained job.
Water across much of West Yorkshire is soft. If that holds for your street in Elland, limescale on shower glass and heads builds up slowly and a squeegee after use is usually enough. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- A glass enclosure, walk-in panel or frameless screen
- 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 thermostatic shower valve, with the pipework moved for the new head position
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.
