Working in Cookstown

In Cookstown we cover BT80; we also cover Magherafelt, 9.4 miles away, and Dungannon.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Cookstown: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Cookstown 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 Cookstown, we check the water pressure first, so the head you choose will actually perform.

Water across much of County Tyrone is soft. If that holds for your street in Cookstown, 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 survey of the space, the waste position, water pressure and the hot-water system
Tanking to the shower walls, and to the floor where it is tiled
Wall tiling, with an optional recessed niche
Silicone, a full-flow test for leaks and spray, and handover

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.

Niche

A recessed shelf in the back wall keeps bottles off the tray. It has to be planned at first fix and tanked like the rest of the wall.

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 Cookstown?

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.
