Working in Swinton
In Swinton we cover M27, M28 and M30; we also cover Eccles, 1.3 miles away, and Walkden.
Swinton gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If you are converting a bathroom in Swinton into a shower room, we price a tray and a tiled level floor side by side. If nobody in your Swinton home has used the bath in a while, a shower room puts that space to better use.
Most of Greater Manchester is supplied with soft water. If that holds for your street in Swinton, 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
- A low-profile tray or a tiled level floor, with the waste positioned for a good fall
- A basin and WC to suit the space, freestanding or set into a fitted furniture run
- Recessed niches or shelving in the shower wall
- Tanking to the shower area, then wall and floor tiling
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.
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.
