Working in Hyde

We cover every part of Hyde, including M34, SK14 and SK16, and nearby Denton (1.6 miles) and Dukinfield (1.7 miles).

Homes in and around Hyde vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. We plan shower rooms in Hyde around the waste route first, so the tray has a good fall and drains quickly. If you are converting a bathroom in Hyde into a shower room, we price a tray and a tiled level floor side by side.

Water across much of Greater Manchester is soft. If that holds for your street in Hyde, 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
Removal of the old bath and suite, waste removal, testing and handover
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

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.

Shower rooms in Hyde: questions

What is the price of a shower room in Hyde?

A shower room in Hyde usually costs £4,200–£8,500 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 Hyde 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 M34 in Hyde?

Yes. We cover all of Hyde, including M34, SK14 and SK16, and nearby Denton, Dukinfield and Stalybridge. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Hyde?

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.
