Working in Liverpool

We work right across Liverpool — L1, L2, L3 and 15 more postcode districts — and in neighbouring Birkenhead and Wallasey.

In a city the size of Liverpool, parking and access for a skip are worth sorting before the start date — we will ask at the survey. For shower rooms in Liverpool, we check the water pressure and hot-water system at the survey, because that decides how well the shower will perform. Where a Liverpool shower room doubles as the guest bathroom, we plan storage so it stays clear of clutter.

Most of Merseyside is supplied with soft water. If that holds for your street in Liverpool, 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 thermostatic shower valve, exposed or concealed, with a fixed head, a handset or both
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
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.

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.

Shower rooms in Liverpool: questions

How much does a shower room cost in Liverpool?

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

Is the water hard in Liverpool?

Who handles building control for a shower room in Liverpool?

Building control for Liverpool 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.
