Working in Eccles
We work right across Eccles — M6, M17 and M30 — and in neighbouring Swinton and Salford.
In Eccles, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. Whether your Eccles bathroom is a narrow galley or a square main room, we show you whether a separate shower would fit before you decide. We survey in Eccles before quoting, so the bath, shower and storage are planned around your actual walls, window and soil stack.
Water across much of Greater Manchester is soft. That leaves you free to choose matt black, brushed brass or clear glass without worrying much about limescale. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- A layout that keeps a full-size bath, with options for a shower over it or a separate enclosure if the room allows
- A free home survey covering room sizes, the soil stack position, your boiler or cylinder type and water pressure
- Final silicone, a test of every tap and waste, and a clean handover
- Wall and floor tiling, with a floor finish chosen to grip under wet feet
Decisions to make first
Floor
Matt or textured porcelain is the hardest-wearing option. Luxury vinyl tile (LVT) is warmer, quieter and cheaper to lay. Avoid polished tiles where children climb out of the bath.
Bath material
Reinforced acrylic is warm to the touch and light on the floor. Steel enamel is harder-wearing and feels more solid, but it draws heat from the water faster.
Rules that apply in England
In England, any new circuit, or any change to the wiring in a room with a bath or shower, is notifiable under Part P. Part G limits the hot water at a new bath to 48 °C only in a new dwelling or one created by change of use; it does not apply to a replacement bath in an existing house, but a thermostatic valve is a sensible choice where children bathe.
