Working in Cheshunt

As well as Cheshunt itself (EN7, EN8 and EN9), we survey in Waltham Abbey, Enfield and Hoddesdon.

In Cheshunt, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. We plan shower rooms in Cheshunt around the waste route first, so the tray has a good fall and drains quickly. If your second bathroom in Cheshunt is too narrow for a bath, a long walk-in tray can often fit along the same wall.

Most of Hertfordshire has very hard water. If your supply in Cheshunt 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

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
Recessed niches or shelving in the shower wall
Extractor fan, lighting and towel rail wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified

Decisions to make first

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.

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.

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 Cheshunt: questions

What is the price of a shower room in Cheshunt?

A shower room in Cheshunt usually costs £4,800–£9,500 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.

Is the water hard in Cheshunt?

Who handles building control for a shower room in Cheshunt?

Building control for Cheshunt 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.

What is the difference between a shower room and a wet room?

A shower room has a tray, or a shower area with its own screen, and only the shower area is waterproofed. A wet room has a fully tanked floor laid to fall to a drain, so the whole room can get wet. A shower room usually costs less and is quicker to fit. Our guide to wet rooms and walk-in showers compares them.
