Working in Redhill

We cover every part of Redhill, including RH1 and RH2, and nearby Reigate (1.5 miles) and Horley (4.6 miles).

In Redhill, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. Where a Redhill shower room doubles as the guest bathroom, we plan storage so it stays clear of clutter. If you are converting a bathroom in Redhill into a shower room, we price a tray and a tiled level floor side by side.

Supplies across most of Surrey are hard. If your supply in Redhill 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 thermostatic shower valve, exposed or concealed, with a fixed head, a handset or both
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

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.

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.

Shower rooms in Redhill: questions

How much does a shower room cost in Redhill?

A shower room in Redhill usually costs £5,000–£10,000 including VAT. Expect the lower end for a like-for-like job with standard products, and the upper end if things move or you choose premium finishes. Your quote is itemised and fixed in writing once agreed.

Is the home survey in Redhill 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 RH1 and RH2 in Redhill?

Yes. We cover all of Redhill, including RH1 and RH2, and nearby Reigate, Horley and Caterham. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Redhill?

What shower suits my water system?

It depends on your hot water. A combi boiler or unvented cylinder supplies mains pressure to a thermostatic mixer. A tank-fed system may need a pump, which must only be used on gravity systems. An electric shower heats cold mains water and suits a home without much stored hot water. See choosing a shower.
