Working in Cheshunt
We cover every part of Cheshunt, including EN7, EN8 and EN9, and nearby Waltham Abbey (1.4 miles) and Enfield (4.1 miles).
In Cheshunt, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. In a long, narrow Cheshunt en-suite, a walk-in tray along the back wall often works better than a square enclosure. If your Cheshunt shower enclosure has a leaking door seal or a cracked tray, a walk-in panel removes the door altogether.
Water across much of Hertfordshire is very hard. If your supply in Cheshunt 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
- Wall tiling, with an optional recessed niche
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.
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.
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.
