Working in Crowborough

In Crowborough we cover TN6; we also cover Tunbridge Wells, 6.6 miles away, and Uckfield.

Crowborough gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If your second bathroom in Crowborough is too narrow for a bath, a long walk-in tray can often fit along the same wall. For shower rooms in Crowborough, we check the water pressure and hot-water system at the survey, because that decides how well the shower will perform.

Water across much of East Sussex is hard. If your supply in Crowborough is the same, limescale on shower glass and heads is a real issue: easy-clean glass, rub-clean nozzles and a squeegee make a big difference. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Tanking to the shower area, then wall and floor tiling
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
Recessed niches or shelving in the shower wall

Decisions to make first

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.

Glass

8 mm toughened glass is the usual standard for a walk-in panel. An easy-clean coating helps a great deal in hard-water areas.

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.

Is the home survey in Crowborough really free?

Is the water hard in Crowborough?

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.
