Working in Wath upon Dearne

As well as Wath upon Dearne itself (S63, S64 and S73), we survey in Mexborough, Wombwell and Rawmarsh.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Wath upon Dearne: free survey, written quote, one team. If you are converting a bathroom in Wath upon Dearne into a shower room, we price a tray and a tiled level floor side by side. We plan shower rooms in Wath upon Dearne around the waste route first, so the tray has a good fall and drains quickly.

Water across much of South Yorkshire is moderately hard. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Wath upon Dearne. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Removal of the old bath and suite, waste removal, testing and handover
A basin and WC to suit the space, freestanding or set into a fitted furniture run
A low-profile tray or a tiled level floor, with the waste positioned for a good fall
Tanking to the shower area, then wall and floor tiling

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.

Valve and heads

A bar valve is simple and easy to service. A concealed valve with a ceiling head looks cleaner but needs good flow to perform.

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.
