Working in St Neots

We work right across St Neots — PE19 — and in neighbouring Huntingdon and Biggleswade.

Homes in and around St Neots vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. We plan shower rooms in St Neots around the waste route first, so the tray has a good fall and drains quickly. Where a St Neots shower room doubles as the guest bathroom, we plan storage so it stays clear of clutter.

Supplies across most of Cambridgeshire are very hard. If your supply in St Neots 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

Tanking to the shower area, then wall and floor tiling
A basin and WC to suit the space, freestanding or set into a fitted furniture run
An enclosure, walk-in panel or frameless screen in toughened safety glass
Extractor fan, lighting and towel rail wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified

Decisions to make first

Tray size

A 1200 by 800 mm or 1400 by 900 mm tray with a single panel makes a comfortable walk-in. Go as long as the room allows; length does more than width to keep spray inside.

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.

A shower room in St Neots usually costs £4,800–£9,500 including VAT. The final figure comes down to what you choose and what we find at the survey; your written quote lists every item so you can see where the money goes.

Is the home survey in St Neots 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 PE19 in St Neots?

Is the water hard in St Neots?

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.
