Working in Swindon
We work right across Swindon — SN1, SN2, SN3 and 1 more postcode districts — and in neighbouring Calne and Cirencester.
In a city the size of Swindon, parking and access for a skip are worth sorting before the start date — we will ask at the survey. If the bath in your Swindon home is mainly used for storing things, a walk-in shower in the same space is a quick, contained job. If someone in your Swindon home is finding the bath side harder to step over, a low or level-access tray removes the problem.
Water across much of Wiltshire is hard. If your supply in Swindon 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
- Silicone, a full-flow test and a tidy finish where the new tiling meets the old
- A survey of the bath space, the waste position, the floor and your water system
- A glass enclosure, walk-in panel or frameless screen
- A low-profile tray, or a former and tanking for a level-access floor
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.
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.
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.
