Working in Old Trafford

We work right across Old Trafford — M16, M17 and M32 — and in neighbouring Stretford and Salford.

Old Trafford gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. For shower rooms in Old Trafford, we check the water pressure and hot-water system at the survey, because that decides how well the shower will perform. If you are converting a bathroom in Old Trafford 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 Old Trafford, 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

Removal of the old bath and suite, waste removal, testing and handover
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
Extractor fan, lighting and towel rail wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified

Decisions to make first

Storage

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

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.

More about shower rooms

Shower rooms in Old Trafford: questions

What is the price of a shower room in Old Trafford?

A shower room in Old Trafford usually costs £4,200–£8,500 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 Old Trafford.

Is the home survey in Old Trafford 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 M16 in Old Trafford?

Yes. We cover all of Old Trafford, including M16, M17 and M32, and nearby Stretford, Salford and Eccles. 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.
