Working in Kirkby in Ashfield

We work right across Kirkby in Ashfield — NG17 and NG18 — and in neighbouring Sutton in Ashfield and Mansfield.

In Kirkby in Ashfield, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. We plan shower rooms in Kirkby in Ashfield around the waste route first, so the tray has a good fall and drains quickly. Where a Kirkby in Ashfield shower room doubles as the guest bathroom, we plan storage so it stays clear of clutter.

Water across much of Nottinghamshire is hard. If your supply in Kirkby in Ashfield 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

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
Extractor fan, lighting and towel rail wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified

Decisions to make first

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.

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.

Is the water hard in Kirkby in Ashfield?

What shower suits my water system?

It depends on your hot water. A combi boiler or unvented cylinder supplies mains pressure to a thermostatic mixer. A tank-fed system may need a pump, which must only be used on gravity systems. An electric shower heats cold mains water and suits a home without much stored hot water. See choosing a shower.
