Working in Barnsley
We work right across Barnsley — S63, S70, S71 and 1 more postcode districts — and in neighbouring Darton and Hoyland Nether.
Homes in and around Barnsley vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If nobody in your Barnsley home has used the bath in a while, a shower room puts that space to better use. Where a Barnsley shower room doubles as the guest bathroom, we plan storage so it stays clear of clutter.
Most of South Yorkshire has moderately hard water. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Barnsley. 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
- Removal of the old bath and suite, waste removal, testing and handover
- Tanking to the shower area, then wall and floor tiling
- A basin and WC to suit the space, freestanding or set into a fitted furniture run
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.
