Working in Stratford
As well as Stratford itself (E7, E12 and E15), we survey in Bow, Canning Town and Canary Wharf.
In Stratford, many bathrooms are in flats or converted houses, so we check lease consents, access and the floor below before we price. We measure walk-in showers in Stratford so the tray and panel are sized together, which is what keeps the spray in. If your Stratford bathroom has a bath that nobody uses, a walk-in shower in the same space is often a two or three day job.
Supplies across most of Greater London are very hard. If your supply in Stratford 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
- 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
- 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.
