Working in New Milton
We work right across New Milton — BH25 — and in neighbouring Christchurch and Bournemouth.
In New Milton, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If your New Milton bathroom has a bath that nobody uses, a walk-in shower in the same space is often a two or three day job. In a long, narrow New Milton en-suite, a walk-in tray along the back wall often works better than a square enclosure.
Supplies across most of Hampshire are hard. If your supply in New Milton 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
- 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
- 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.
