Working in Broadstairs

As well as Broadstairs itself (CT10), we survey in Ramsgate, Margate and Deal.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Broadstairs: free survey, written quote, one team. If you are converting a bathroom in Broadstairs into a shower room, we price a tray and a tiled level floor side by side. If your second bathroom in Broadstairs is too narrow for a bath, a long walk-in tray can often fit along the same wall.

Most of Kent has very hard water. If your supply in Broadstairs 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
A low-profile tray or a tiled level floor, with the waste positioned for a good fall
Removal of the old bath and suite, waste removal, testing and handover
A basin and WC to suit the space, freestanding or set into a fitted furniture run

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.

Shower rooms in Broadstairs: questions

What is the price of a shower room in Broadstairs?

A shower room in Broadstairs usually costs £5,000–£10,000 including VAT. The final figure comes down to what you choose and what we find at the survey; your written quote lists every item so you can see where the money goes.

Is the water hard in Broadstairs?

Who handles building control for a shower room in Broadstairs?

Building control for Broadstairs 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.
