Working in Penzance

As well as Penzance itself (TR18), we survey in Camborne, Redruth and Falmouth.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Penzance: free survey, written quote, one team. If nobody in your Penzance home has used the bath in a while, a shower room puts that space to better use. Where a Penzance shower room doubles as the guest bathroom, we plan storage so it stays clear of clutter.

Supplies across most of Cornwall are soft. If that holds for your street in Penzance, limescale on shower glass and heads builds up slowly and a squeegee after use is usually enough. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Removal of the old bath and suite, waste removal, testing and handover
Extractor fan, lighting and towel rail wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
A survey of water pressure and flow, the hot-water system and the floor where the tray or former will sit
A basin and WC to suit the space, freestanding or set into a fitted furniture run

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.

Tray or level floor

A low-profile stone-resin tray is quicker to fit and costs less. A tiled level floor looks seamless but needs a former, tanking and more floor preparation.

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 Penzance: questions

What is the price of a shower room in Penzance?

A shower room in Penzance usually costs £4,600–£9,200 including VAT. Expect the lower end for a like-for-like job with standard products, and the upper end if things move or you choose premium finishes. Your quote is itemised and fixed in writing once 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 Penzance.

Is the home survey in Penzance 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 TR18 in Penzance?

Yes. We cover all of Penzance, including TR18, and nearby Camborne, Redruth and Falmouth. 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.
