Working in Exmouth

In Exmouth we cover EX8; we also cover Exeter, 9.2 miles away, and Newton Abbot.

In Exmouth, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. Where a Exmouth shower room doubles as the guest bathroom, we plan storage so it stays clear of clutter. For shower rooms in Exmouth, we check the water pressure and hot-water system at the survey, because that decides how well the shower will perform.

Supplies across most of Devon are soft. If that holds for your street in Exmouth, 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

Recessed niches or shelving in the shower wall
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
A thermostatic shower valve, exposed or concealed, with a fixed head, a handset or both

Decisions to make first

Storage

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

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 Exmouth: questions

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

A shower room in Exmouth usually costs £4,600–£9,200 including VAT. Where you land in that range depends on the size of the room, whether the layout changes and the products you choose.

Is the water hard in Exmouth?

Who handles building control for a shower room in Exmouth?

Building control for Exmouth is handled by the local council or an approved inspector. If your job needs sign-off — for example a new circuit, new drainage or a new extractor where there was none — we tell you at the survey and handle the notification as part of the work.

What is the difference between a shower room and a wet room?

A shower room has a tray, or a shower area with its own screen, and only the shower area is waterproofed. A wet room has a fully tanked floor laid to fall to a drain, so the whole room can get wet. A shower room usually costs less and is quicker to fit. Our guide to wet rooms and walk-in showers compares them.
