Working in Calne
As well as Calne itself (SN11), we survey in Chippenham, Devizes and Melksham.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Calne: free survey, written quote, one team. For Calne houses with only one bath, we talk through whether to keep it before you decide. If someone in your Calne home is finding the bath side harder to step over, a low or level-access tray removes the problem.
Supplies across most of Wiltshire are hard. If your supply in Calne is the same, limescale on shower glass and heads is a real issue: easy-clean glass, rub-clean nozzles and a squeegee make a big difference. 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
- A low-profile tray, or a former and tanking for a level-access floor
- 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
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.
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.
