Working in Rickmansworth

In Rickmansworth we cover HA6, WD3 and WD18; we also cover Watford, 3.7 miles away, and Chalfont St Peter.

In Rickmansworth, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. Where a Rickmansworth shower room doubles as the guest bathroom, we plan storage so it stays clear of clutter. For shower rooms in Rickmansworth, we check the water pressure and hot-water system at the survey, because that decides how well the shower will perform.

Supplies across most of Hertfordshire are very hard. If your supply in Rickmansworth 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

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
Recessed niches or shelving in the shower wall
Tanking to the shower area, then wall and floor tiling

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.

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.

Is the home survey in Rickmansworth 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 HA6 in Rickmansworth?

Yes. We cover all of Rickmansworth, including HA6, WD3 and WD18, and nearby Watford, Chalfont St Peter and North Watford. 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.
