Working in Armagh

We work right across Armagh — BT61 — and in neighbouring Portadown and Dungannon.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Armagh: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Armagh bathroom has a bath that nobody uses, a walk-in shower in the same space is often a two or three day job. For a walk-in shower in Armagh, we check the water pressure first, so the head you choose will actually perform.

Supplies across most of County Armagh are soft. If that holds for your street in Armagh, 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

A thermostatic valve with a riser rail, a fixed head or both
Tanking to the shower walls, and to the floor where it is tiled
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 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.

Head

A large overhead head feels luxurious but needs good flow. A handset on a riser is easier for rinsing hair and cleaning the shower.

Rules that apply in Northern Ireland

In Northern Ireland, building control is only involved where drainage, structure or ventilation change. New fittings must meet the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2009.

Walk-in showers in Armagh: questions

How much does a walk-in shower cost in Armagh?

A walk-in shower in Armagh usually costs £2,200–£5,300 including VAT. The final figure comes down to what you choose and what we find at the survey; your written quote lists every item so you can see where the money goes.

Is the water hard in Armagh?

Does a walk-in shower in Armagh need building control approval?

Building control in Armagh is run by the local district council. Where approval is needed, for example for new drainage, we tell you at the survey and handle it as part of the job.

How long does a walk-in shower take?

Allow 2–5 working days on site for most jobs, plus the lead time for products after you approve the quote. We give you a day-by-day plan before work starts in Armagh.

Can a walk-in shower replace a bath?

Yes. A standard bath is about 1700 by 700 mm, so a 1700 mm tray fits the same space and can often use the existing waste position. It is one of the simplest ways to get a walk-in shower; our bath to shower conversions page covers that job in detail.
