Working in Skegness

As well as Skegness itself (PE25), we survey in Boston, Louth and Spalding.

Skegness gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If nobody in your Skegness home has used the bath in a while, a shower room puts that space to better use. If your second bathroom in Skegness is too narrow for a bath, a long walk-in tray can often fit along the same wall.

Most of Lincolnshire has hard water. If your supply in Skegness 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
An enclosure, walk-in panel or frameless screen in toughened safety glass
Removal of the old bath and suite, waste removal, testing and handover
A thermostatic shower valve, exposed or concealed, with a fixed head, a handset or both

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.

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.

Shower rooms in Skegness: questions

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

Is the water hard in Skegness?

Who handles building control for a shower room in Skegness?

Building control for Skegness 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.

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 Skegness.

Will a shower room put buyers off?

A shower room is rarely a problem as an en-suite or second bathroom. If it would be the only bathroom in a family-sized house, some buyers will want a bath, so think about how long you plan to stay. A local estate agent can tell you what buyers in your street expect.
