Working in Stockton-on-Tees
We cover every part of Stockton-on-Tees, including TS18, TS19 and TS20, and nearby Billingham (1.8 miles) and Thornaby-on-Tees (2.5 miles).
Stockton-on-Tees has a wide mix of house ages, so the survey is where we spot old lead pipework, weak joists or a tight soil stack. We measure walk-in showers in Stockton-on-Tees so the tray and panel are sized together, which is what keeps the spray in. If your Stockton-on-Tees shower enclosure has a leaking door seal or a cracked tray, a walk-in panel removes the door altogether.
Most of County Durham has moderately hard water. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Stockton-on-Tees. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Wall tiling, with an optional recessed niche
- Tanking to the shower walls, and to the floor where it is tiled
- An 8 mm or 10 mm toughened glass panel with a wall profile and support arm, or a frameless fixing
- A survey of the space, the waste position, water pressure and the hot-water system
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.
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.
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.
