Working in Croydon

In Croydon we cover CR0, CR2, CR5 and 5 more postcode districts; we also cover Mitcham, 3.2 miles away, and Purley.

London homes in Croydon often mean stairs, permits and neighbours below; we plan the logistics as carefully as the bathroom. If nobody in your Croydon home has used the bath in a while, a shower room puts that space to better use. If you are converting a bathroom in Croydon into a shower room, we price a tray and a tiled level floor side by side.

Supplies across most of Greater London are very hard. If your supply in Croydon 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
A basin and WC to suit the space, freestanding or set into a fitted furniture run
A thermostatic shower valve, exposed or concealed, with a fixed head, a handset or both
Extractor fan, lighting and towel rail wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified

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.

Storage

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

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.

More about shower rooms

Shower rooms in Croydon: questions

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

A shower room in Croydon usually costs £5,600–£11,250 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.

How long does a shower room take?

Allow 4–8 working days on site for most jobs, plus the lead time for products after you approve the quote. We give you a day-by-day plan before work starts in Croydon.

Is the home survey in Croydon 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 CR0 in Croydon?

Yes. We cover all of Croydon, including CR0, CR2, CR5, CR7 and 4 more postcode districts, and nearby Mitcham, Purley and Streatham. 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.
