Working in Horley

We cover every part of Horley, including RH6, and nearby Crawley (4.4 miles) and Redhill (4.6 miles).

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Horley: free survey, written quote, one team. If nobody in your Horley home has used the bath in a while, a shower room puts that space to better use. We plan shower rooms in Horley around the waste route first, so the tray has a good fall and drains quickly.

Water across much of Surrey is hard. If your supply in Horley 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

Extractor fan, lighting and towel rail wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
Recessed niches or shelving in the shower wall
A survey of water pressure and flow, the hot-water system and the floor where the tray or former will sit
An enclosure, walk-in panel or frameless screen in toughened safety glass

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.

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.

Who handles building control for a shower room in Horley?

Building control for Horley 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.

How long does a shower room take?

Allow 4–8 working days on site for most jobs, plus the lead time for products after you approve the quote. We give you a day-by-day plan before work starts in Horley.

Will a shower room put buyers off?

A shower room is rarely a problem as an en-suite or second bathroom. If it would be the only bathroom in a family-sized house, some buyers will want a bath, so think about how long you plan to stay. A local estate agent can tell you what buyers in your street expect.
