Working in Deal

In Deal we cover CT14; we also cover Dover, 7.8 miles away, and Ramsgate.

Homes in and around Deal vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If your second bathroom in Deal is too narrow for a bath, a long walk-in tray can often fit along the same wall. If nobody in your Deal home has used the bath in a while, a shower room puts that space to better use.

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

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.

Tray or level floor

A low-profile stone-resin tray is quicker to fit and costs less. A tiled level floor looks seamless but needs a former, tanking and more floor preparation.

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 Deal: questions

How much should I budget for a shower room in Deal?

A shower room in Deal usually costs £5,000–£10,000 including VAT. Room size, layout changes and your choice of products move the figure within that range. The free survey gives you an itemised quote, fixed in writing once the details are agreed.

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 Deal.

Is the home survey in Deal 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 CT14 in Deal?

Yes. We cover all of Deal, including CT14, and nearby Dover, Ramsgate and Broadstairs. 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.
