Working in Cookstown

We cover every part of Cookstown, including BT80, and nearby Magherafelt (9.4 miles) and Dungannon (9.7 miles).

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Cookstown: free survey, written quote, one team. If nobody in your Cookstown home has used the bath in a while, a shower room puts that space to better use. We plan shower rooms in Cookstown around the waste route first, so the tray has a good fall and drains quickly.

Most of County Tyrone is supplied with soft water. If that holds for your street in Cookstown, 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
A survey of water pressure and flow, the hot-water system and the floor where the tray or former will sit
Extractor fan, lighting and towel rail wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
A low-profile tray or a tiled level floor, with the waste positioned for a good fall

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.

Storage

With no bath, there is often space for a full-width vanity unit or a tall cupboard for towels.

Rules that apply in Northern Ireland

In Northern Ireland, building control covers changes to drainage, structure and ventilation. Water fittings must meet the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2009, and wiring should follow BS 7671.

More about shower rooms

Shower rooms in Cookstown: questions

How much should I budget for a shower room in Cookstown?

A shower room in Cookstown usually costs £4,000–£7,900 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.

Is the home survey in Cookstown 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 BT80 in Cookstown?

Is the water hard in Cookstown?

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.
