Working in Battersea

We work right across Battersea — SW3, SW8 and SW11 — and in neighbouring Chelsea and Fulham.

In Battersea, many bathrooms are in flats or converted houses, so we check lease consents, access and the floor below before we price. If your second bathroom in Battersea is too narrow for a bath, a long walk-in tray can often fit along the same wall. If nobody in your Battersea home has used the bath in a while, a shower room puts that space to better use.

Supplies across most of Greater London are very hard. If your supply in Battersea 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

A low-profile tray or a tiled level floor, with the waste positioned for a good fall
An enclosure, walk-in panel or frameless screen in toughened safety glass
Tanking to the shower area, then wall and floor tiling
Removal of the old bath and suite, waste removal, testing and handover

Decisions to make first

Drain

A centre waste in a tray is the norm. A linear drain along one wall lets a tiled floor fall one way, so large tiles can run through.

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.

Shower rooms in Battersea: questions

What is the price of a shower room in Battersea?

A shower room in Battersea usually costs £5,600–£11,250 including VAT. The final figure comes down to what you choose and what we find at the survey; your written quote lists every item so you can see where the money goes.

Is the home survey in Battersea 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 SW3 in Battersea?

Yes. We cover all of Battersea, including SW3, SW8 and SW11, and nearby Chelsea, Fulham and Brixton. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

What size shower tray do I need?

A 900 by 900 mm tray is a comfortable minimum for an enclosure. For a walk-in with one glass panel and no door, 1200 by 800 mm is a practical starting point, and 1400 mm or longer keeps the spray in better. The room shape, door swing and waste position decide the final size.
