Working in Billericay
As well as Billericay itself (CM12), we survey in Basildon, Wickford and Brentwood.
In Billericay, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If you are planning ahead in Billericay for easier access, a low-profile walk-in tray gives most of the benefit without a full wet room. If your Billericay shower enclosure has a leaking door seal or a cracked tray, a walk-in panel removes the door altogether.
Supplies across most of Essex are very hard. If your supply in Billericay 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
- An 8 mm or 10 mm toughened glass panel with a wall profile and support arm, or a frameless fixing
- Silicone, a full-flow test for leaks and spray, and handover
- A survey of the space, the waste position, water pressure and the hot-water system
- Wall tiling, with an optional recessed niche
Decisions to make first
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.
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 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.
