Working in Leatherhead

We work right across Leatherhead — KT21 and KT22 — and in neighbouring Epsom and Cobham.

In Leatherhead, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. For shower rooms in Leatherhead, we check the water pressure and hot-water system at the survey, because that decides how well the shower will perform. Where a Leatherhead shower room doubles as the guest bathroom, we plan storage so it stays clear of clutter.

Most of Surrey has hard water. If your supply in Leatherhead 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 low-profile tray or a tiled level floor, with the waste positioned for a good fall
Recessed niches or shelving in the shower wall
Tanking to the shower area, then wall and floor tiling
A thermostatic shower valve, exposed or concealed, with a fixed head, a handset or both

Decisions to make first

Tray or level floor

A low-profile stone-resin tray is quicker to fit and costs less. A tiled level floor looks seamless but needs a former, tanking and more floor preparation.

Storage

With no bath, there is often space for a full-width vanity unit or a tall cupboard for towels.

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.

How much should I budget for a shower room in Leatherhead?

Is the home survey in Leatherhead really free?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

Do you cover KT21 and KT22 in Leatherhead?

Yes. We cover all of Leatherhead, including KT21 and KT22, and nearby Epsom, Cobham and Dorking. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

What size shower tray do I need?

A 900 by 900 mm tray is a comfortable minimum for an enclosure. For a walk-in with one glass panel and no door, 1200 by 800 mm is a practical starting point, and 1400 mm or longer keeps the spray in better. The room shape, door swing and waste position decide the final size.
