Working in Kidderminster

We work right across Kidderminster — DY10 and DY11 — and in neighbouring Stourport-on-Severn and Stourbridge.

Homes in and around Kidderminster vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. We plan shower rooms in Kidderminster around the waste route first, so the tray has a good fall and drains quickly. For shower rooms in Kidderminster, we check the water pressure and hot-water system at the survey, because that decides how well the shower will perform.

Water across much of Worcestershire is moderately hard. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Kidderminster. 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 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
A low-profile tray or a tiled level floor, with the waste positioned for a good fall

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.

Who handles building control for a shower room in Kidderminster?

How long does a shower room take?

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.
