Which towns do we cover in Dundee and Angus?

Supplies across most of Dundee and Angus are soft. If that holds for your street in Dundee, 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. If your second bathroom in Dundee is too narrow for a bath, a long walk-in tray can often fit along the same wall.

What the job includes

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
Recessed niches or shelving in the shower wall
A thermostatic shower valve, exposed or concealed, with a fixed head, a handset or both
A low-profile tray or a tiled level floor, with the waste positioned for a good fall
Extractor fan, lighting and towel rail wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified

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.

Storage

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

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.

Rules that apply in Scotland

Turning a bathroom into a shower room does not need planning permission. The electrics must meet BS 7671: 30 mA RCD protection on every circuit, at least IPX4 fittings in zone 1 above the tray up to 2.25 m, or IPX5 where water jets are used, and no ordinary sockets within 3 m of zone 1. A shower pump can only be used on a gravity system with a cold tank, never connected directly to the mains.

In Scotland, building standards apply instead of Part P. A refit in the same room rarely needs a building warrant, but altering the drainage may. Water fittings must meet the Scottish Water Byelaws 2014.

Is the water hard in Dundee and Angus?

Can a shower room have a level floor?

Yes. A tiled level floor with a former and linear drain gives a seamless look and level access, but it needs full tanking of the shower area and a suitable floor build-up. On a timber floor, the former is set between the joists; on a concrete floor, the screed may need cutting out to set the drain.
