Working in Clacton-on-Sea
We work right across Clacton-on-Sea — CO15 — and in neighbouring Frinton-on-Sea and Walton-on-the-Naze.
Homes in and around Clacton-on-Sea vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. We measure walk-in showers in Clacton-on-Sea so the tray and panel are sized together, which is what keeps the spray in. For a walk-in shower in Clacton-on-Sea, we check the water pressure first, so the head you choose will actually perform.
Water across much of Essex is very hard. If your supply in Clacton-on-Sea 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
- 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
- A thermostatic valve with a riser rail, a fixed head or both
- An 8 mm or 10 mm toughened glass panel with a wall profile and support arm, or a frameless fixing
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 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.
