Working in Felling

We work right across Felling — NE8, NE9 and NE10 — and in neighbouring Gateshead and Newcastle upon Tyne.

Homes in and around Felling vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. For shower rooms in Felling, 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 Felling around the waste route first, so the tray has a good fall and drains quickly.

Most of Tyne and Wear is supplied with soft water. If that holds for your street in Felling, limescale on shower glass and heads builds up slowly and a squeegee after use is usually enough. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Removal of the old bath and suite, waste removal, testing and handover
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 basin and WC to suit the space, freestanding or set into a fitted furniture run

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.

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.

Shower rooms in Felling: questions

Is the home survey in Felling 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 NE8 in Felling?

Yes. We cover all of Felling, including NE8, NE9 and NE10, and nearby Gateshead, Newcastle upon Tyne and Hebburn. 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.
