Working in Romsey

We work right across Romsey — SO51 — and in neighbouring Totton and Eastleigh.

Romsey gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If you are planning ahead in Romsey for easier access, a low-profile walk-in tray gives most of the benefit without a full wet room. If your Romsey shower enclosure has a leaking door seal or a cracked tray, a walk-in panel removes the door altogether.

Water across much of Hampshire is hard. If your supply in Romsey 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

Silicone, a full-flow test for leaks and spray, and handover
A low-profile stone-resin tray, or a floor former with a linear drain for a tiled level floor
Wall tiling, with an optional recessed niche
Removal of the old bath or enclosure and making good to the walls and floor

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.

Walk-in showers in Romsey: questions

How much should I budget for a walk-in shower in Romsey?

How long does a walk-in shower take?

Allow 2–5 working days on site for most jobs, plus the lead time for products after you approve the quote. We give you a day-by-day plan before work starts in Romsey.

Is the home survey in Romsey really free?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

Do you cover SO51 in Romsey?

Yes. We cover all of Romsey, including SO51, and nearby Totton, Eastleigh and Southampton. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

What is the difference between a walk-in shower and a wet room?

A walk-in shower uses a tray, or a tanked shower area, with a glass panel, so only the shower area is waterproofed. In a wet room the whole floor is tanked and falls to a drain. A walk-in shower costs less and is quicker to fit; a wet room gives a fully level floor from wall to wall.
