Working in Deal
In Deal we cover CT14; we also cover Dover, 7.8 miles away, and Ramsgate.
Homes in and around Deal vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. For a walk-in shower in Deal, we check the water pressure first, so the head you choose will actually perform. If your Deal bathroom has a bath that nobody uses, a walk-in shower in the same space is often a two or three day job.
Water across much of Kent is very hard. If your supply in Deal 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
- An 8 mm or 10 mm toughened glass panel with a wall profile and support arm, or a frameless fixing
- Tanking to the shower walls, and to the floor where it is tiled
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.
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.
