Working in Bracknell
In Bracknell we cover RG12; we also cover Ascot, 3.3 miles away, and Crowthorne.
Bracknell has a wide mix of house ages, so the survey is where we spot old lead pipework, weak joists or a tight soil stack. If your Bracknell bathroom has a bath that nobody uses, a walk-in shower in the same space is often a two or three day job. If your Bracknell shower enclosure has a leaking door seal or a cracked tray, a walk-in panel removes the door altogether.
Most of Berkshire has hard water. If your supply in Bracknell 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
- Tanking to the shower walls, and to the floor where it is tiled
- Wall tiling, with an optional recessed niche
- A low-profile stone-resin tray, or a floor former with a linear drain for a tiled level floor
- A survey of the space, the waste position, water pressure and the hot-water system
Decisions to make first
Tray or tiled floor
A tray is quicker, costs less and has a small lip. A tiled floor with a linear drain sits level with the rest of the room and lets one tile run throughout.
Tray length
Go long rather than wide. A 1400 to 1700 mm tray with a 900 to 1200 mm panel leaves a dry walkway; a 1200 mm tray works but gives less margin for spray.
Rules that apply in England
In England, moving or adding lights, a fan or a shower circuit in a room with a bath or shower is notifiable under Part P. A tiled level floor that needs a new drain connection at the soil stack can bring in Part H.
