Working in Coleraine
As well as Coleraine itself (BT51, BT52 and BT55), we survey in Limavady, Magherafelt and Derry.
In Coleraine, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If your second bathroom in Coleraine is too narrow for a bath, a long walk-in tray can often fit along the same wall. Where a Coleraine shower room doubles as the guest bathroom, we plan storage so it stays clear of clutter.
Most of County Londonderry is supplied with soft water. If that holds for your street in Coleraine, 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
- Extractor fan, lighting and towel rail wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
- 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
- A survey of water pressure and flow, the hot-water system and the floor where the tray or former will sit
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.
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.
