Working in Marlow

As well as Marlow itself (SL7), we survey in Maidenhead, High Wycombe and Slough.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Marlow: free survey, written quote, one team. We plan shower rooms in Marlow around the waste route first, so the tray has a good fall and drains quickly. If you are converting a bathroom in Marlow into a shower room, we price a tray and a tiled level floor side by side.

Most of Buckinghamshire has hard water. If your supply in Marlow 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 survey of water pressure and flow, the hot-water system and the floor where the tray or former will sit
Recessed niches or shelving in the shower wall
Removal of the old bath and suite, waste removal, testing and handover
A low-profile tray or a tiled level floor, with the waste positioned for a good fall

Decisions to make first

Valve and heads

A bar valve is simple and easy to service. A concealed valve with a ceiling head looks cleaner but needs good flow to perform.

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.

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.

More about shower rooms

Shower rooms in Marlow: questions

What is the price of a shower room in Marlow?

A shower room in Marlow 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.

Is the home survey in Marlow 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 SL7 in Marlow?

Yes. We cover all of Marlow, including SL7, and nearby Maidenhead, High Wycombe and Slough. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Marlow?

What shower suits my water system?

It depends on your hot water. A combi boiler or unvented cylinder supplies mains pressure to a thermostatic mixer. A tank-fed system may need a pump, which must only be used on gravity systems. An electric shower heats cold mains water and suits a home without much stored hot water. See choosing a shower.
