Working in Hounslow

In Hounslow we cover TW3, TW4, TW5 and 5 more postcode districts; we also cover Isleworth, 0.9 miles away, and Heston.

London homes in Hounslow often mean stairs, permits and neighbours below; we plan the logistics as carefully as the bathroom. In a long, narrow Hounslow en-suite, a walk-in tray along the back wall often works better than a square enclosure. If your Hounslow bathroom has a bath that nobody uses, a walk-in shower in the same space is often a two or three day job.

Water across much of Greater London is very hard. If your supply in Hounslow 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

Tanking to the shower walls, and to the floor where it is tiled
Removal of the old bath or enclosure and making good to the walls and floor
Silicone, a full-flow test for leaks and spray, and handover
A thermostatic valve with a riser rail, a fixed head or both

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.

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.

Is the water hard in Hounslow?

Who handles building control for a walk-in shower in Hounslow?

Building control for Hounslow is handled by the local council or an approved inspector. If your job needs sign-off — for example a new circuit, new drainage or a new extractor where there was none — we tell you at the survey and handle the notification as part of the work.

How big does a walk-in shower need to be?

A walk-in shower with no door works well at 1400 mm long or more, with the glass panel covering most of that length. At 1200 by 800 mm it is still usable, but spray is more likely to escape the open end. A width of 800 to 900 mm is enough for most people.
