Working in Hoddesdon

As well as Hoddesdon itself (EN11), we survey in Ware, Hertford and Cheshunt.

In Hoddesdon, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If nobody in your Hoddesdon home has used the bath in a while, a shower room puts that space to better use. If you are converting a bathroom in Hoddesdon into a shower room, we price a tray and a tiled level floor side by side.

Most of Hertfordshire has very hard water. If your supply in Hoddesdon 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
Recessed niches or shelving in the shower wall
A basin and WC to suit the space, freestanding or set into a fitted furniture run
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.

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.

Is the water hard in Hoddesdon?

Who handles building control for a shower room in Hoddesdon?

Building control for Hoddesdon 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.
