Working in Kilburn
As well as Kilburn itself (NW2, NW3 and NW6), we survey in Cricklewood, Camden Town and Willesden.
London homes in Kilburn often mean stairs, permits and neighbours below; we plan the logistics as carefully as the bathroom. If your Kilburn shower enclosure has a leaking door seal or a cracked tray, a walk-in panel removes the door altogether. If you are planning ahead in Kilburn for easier access, a low-profile walk-in tray gives most of the benefit without a full wet room.
Water across much of Greater London is very hard. If your supply in Kilburn 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 thermostatic valve with a riser rail, a fixed head or both
- A low-profile stone-resin tray, or a floor former with a linear drain for a tiled level floor
- 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
Decisions to make first
Tray length
Go long rather than wide. A 1400 to 1700 mm tray with a 900 to 1200 mm panel leaves a dry walkway; a 1200 mm tray works but gives less margin for spray.
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 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.
