Working in Worthing

As well as Worthing itself (BN11, BN12, BN13 and 1 more postcode districts), we survey in Lancing, Shoreham-by-Sea and Portslade.

Worthing has a wide mix of house ages, so the survey is where we spot old lead pipework, weak joists or a tight soil stack. Where a Worthing shower room doubles as the guest bathroom, we plan storage so it stays clear of clutter. For shower rooms in Worthing, we check the water pressure and hot-water system at the survey, because that decides how well the shower will perform.

Most of West Sussex has hard water. If your supply in Worthing 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

Recessed niches or shelving in the shower wall
A low-profile tray or a tiled level floor, with the waste positioned for a good fall
A thermostatic shower valve, exposed or concealed, with a fixed head, a handset or both
Tanking to the shower area, then wall and floor tiling

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.

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.

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 home survey in Worthing 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 BN11 in Worthing?

Yes. We cover all of Worthing, including BN11, BN12, BN13 and BN14, and nearby Lancing, Shoreham-by-Sea and Portslade. 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.
