Working in Gerrards Cross

As well as Gerrards Cross itself (SL9 and UB9), we survey in Chalfont St Peter, Uxbridge and Rickmansworth.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Gerrards Cross: free survey, written quote, one team. If nobody in your Gerrards Cross home has used the bath in a while, a shower room puts that space to better use. If you are converting a bathroom in Gerrards Cross into a shower room, we price a tray and a tiled level floor side by side.

Water across much of Buckinghamshire is hard. If your supply in Gerrards Cross 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 basin and WC to suit the space, freestanding or set into a fitted furniture run
Recessed niches or shelving in the shower wall
A thermostatic shower valve, exposed or concealed, with a fixed head, a handset or both
Extractor fan, lighting and towel rail wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified

Decisions to make first

Drain

A centre waste in a tray is the norm. A linear drain along one wall lets a tiled floor fall one way, so large tiles can run through.

Glass

8 mm toughened glass is the usual standard for a walk-in panel. An easy-clean coating helps a great deal in hard-water areas.

Rules that apply in England

In England, any change to the wiring in the shower room, or a new circuit for an electric shower, is notifiable under Part P. If you are replacing the fan, keep it at least as effective as the old one; Approved Document F gives 15 litres per second intermittent for a bathroom.

Shower rooms in Gerrards Cross: questions

How much should I budget for a shower room in Gerrards Cross?

A shower room in Gerrards Cross usually costs £5,000–£10,000 including VAT. Room size, layout changes and your choice of products move the figure within that range. The free survey gives you an itemised quote, fixed in writing once the details are agreed.

How long does a shower room take?

Allow 4–8 working days on site for most jobs, plus the lead time for products after you approve the quote. We give you a day-by-day plan before work starts in Gerrards Cross.

Is the home survey in Gerrards Cross really free?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

Do you cover SL9 and UB9 in Gerrards Cross?

Yes. We cover all of Gerrards Cross, including SL9 and UB9, and nearby Chalfont St Peter, Uxbridge and Rickmansworth. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

What size shower tray do I need?

A 900 by 900 mm tray is a comfortable minimum for an enclosure. For a walk-in with one glass panel and no door, 1200 by 800 mm is a practical starting point, and 1400 mm or longer keeps the spray in better. The room shape, door swing and waste position decide the final size.
