Working in Faversham

We work right across Faversham — ME13 — and in neighbouring Whitstable and Sittingbourne.

Faversham gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. For a walk-in shower in Faversham, we check the water pressure first, so the head you choose will actually perform. If your Faversham 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 Faversham 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

Tanking to the shower walls, and to the floor where it is tiled
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
A thermostatic valve with a riser rail, a fixed head or both

Decisions to make first

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.

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.

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 Faversham: questions

How much does a walk-in shower cost in Faversham?

A walk-in shower in Faversham usually costs £2,800–£6,700 including VAT. Where you land in that range depends on the size of the room, whether the layout changes and the products you choose.

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 Faversham.

Is the home survey in Faversham 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 ME13 in Faversham?

Yes. We cover all of Faversham, including ME13, and nearby Whitstable, Sittingbourne and Canterbury. 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.
