Working in Rawtenstall

As well as Rawtenstall itself (BB4 and OL13), we survey in Haslingden, Ramsbottom and Accrington.

Rawtenstall gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If you are converting a bathroom in Rawtenstall into a shower room, we price a tray and a tiled level floor side by side. If your second bathroom in Rawtenstall is too narrow for a bath, a long walk-in tray can often fit along the same wall.

Most of Lancashire is supplied with soft water. If that holds for your street in Rawtenstall, limescale on shower glass and heads builds up slowly and a squeegee after use is usually enough. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

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
Tanking to the shower area, then wall and floor tiling
Removal of the old bath and suite, waste removal, testing and handover

Decisions to make first

Drain

A centre waste in a tray is the norm. A linear drain along one wall lets a tiled floor fall one way, so large tiles can run through.

Tray size

A 1200 by 800 mm or 1400 by 900 mm tray with a single panel makes a comfortable walk-in. Go as long as the room allows; length does more than width to keep spray inside.

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 Rawtenstall: questions

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

A shower room in Rawtenstall usually costs £4,200–£8,500 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.

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 Rawtenstall.

Is the home survey in Rawtenstall 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 BB4 and OL13 in Rawtenstall?

Yes. We cover all of Rawtenstall, including BB4 and OL13, and nearby Haslingden, Ramsbottom and Accrington. 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.
