Working in Banbridge

We work right across Banbridge — BT25, BT31 and BT32 — and in neighbouring Craigavon and Portadown.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Banbridge: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Banbridge 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 Banbridge shower enclosure has a leaking door seal or a cracked tray, a walk-in panel removes the door altogether.

Most of County Down is supplied with soft water. If that holds for your street in Banbridge, 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

Tanking to the shower walls, and to the floor where it is tiled
Wall tiling, with an optional recessed niche
A thermostatic valve with a riser rail, a fixed head or both
Silicone, a full-flow test for leaks and spray, and handover

Decisions to make first

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.

Glass thickness

8 mm toughened glass is standard; 10 mm feels heavier and more solid. An easy-clean coating keeps limescale off clear glass in hard-water areas.

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.

Is the water hard in Banbridge?

What is the difference between a walk-in shower and a wet room?

A walk-in shower uses a tray, or a tanked shower area, with a glass panel, so only the shower area is waterproofed. In a wet room the whole floor is tanked and falls to a drain. A walk-in shower costs less and is quicker to fit; a wet room gives a fully level floor from wall to wall.
