Working in Godalming

As well as Godalming itself (GU7), we survey in Guildford, Haslemere and Aldershot.

Godalming gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. For shower rooms in Godalming, we check the water pressure and hot-water system at the survey, because that decides how well the shower will perform. We plan shower rooms in Godalming around the waste route first, so the tray has a good fall and drains quickly.

Most of Surrey has hard water. If your supply in Godalming 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

A survey of water pressure and flow, the hot-water system and the floor where the tray or former will sit
A basin and WC to suit the space, freestanding or set into a fitted furniture run
Extractor fan, lighting and towel rail wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
An enclosure, walk-in panel or frameless screen in toughened safety glass

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 Godalming?

Who handles building control for a shower room in Godalming?

Building control for Godalming 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.
