Working in Waterlooville

We work right across Waterlooville — PO7, PO8 and PO9 — and in neighbouring Havant and Emsworth.

In Waterlooville, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. Where a Waterlooville shower room doubles as the guest bathroom, we plan storage so it stays clear of clutter. If you are converting a bathroom in Waterlooville into a shower room, we price a tray and a tiled level floor side by side.

Water across much of Hampshire is hard. If your supply in Waterlooville 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

Extractor fan, lighting and towel rail wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
Tanking to the shower area, then wall and floor tiling
A survey of water pressure and flow, the hot-water system and the floor where the tray or former will sit
A low-profile tray or a tiled level floor, with the waste positioned for a good fall

Decisions to make first

Valve and heads

A bar valve is simple and easy to service. A concealed valve with a ceiling head looks cleaner but needs good flow to perform.

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.

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 Waterlooville: questions

How much does a shower room cost in Waterlooville?

A shower room in Waterlooville usually costs £5,000–£10,000 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.

Who handles building control for a shower room in Waterlooville?

Building control for Waterlooville is handled by the local council or an approved inspector. If your job needs sign-off — for example a new circuit, new drainage or a new extractor where there was none — we tell you at the survey and handle the notification as part of the work.

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 Waterlooville.

Is the home survey in Waterlooville 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.

Can a shower room have a level floor?

Yes. A tiled level floor with a former and linear drain gives a seamless look and level access, but it needs full tanking of the shower area and a suitable floor build-up. On a timber floor, the former is set between the joists; on a concrete floor, the screed may need cutting out to set the drain.
