Working in Newcastle under Lyme
As well as Newcastle under Lyme itself (ST5), we survey in Stoke-on-Trent, Longton and Kidsgrove.
Newcastle under Lyme has a wide mix of house ages, so the survey is where we spot old lead pipework, weak joists or a tight soil stack. Where a Newcastle under Lyme shower room doubles as the guest bathroom, we plan storage so it stays clear of clutter. If you are converting a bathroom in Newcastle under Lyme into a shower room, we price a tray and a tiled level floor side by side.
Most of Staffordshire has moderately hard water. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Newcastle under Lyme. 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
- Extractor fan, lighting and towel rail wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
- 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.
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.
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.
