Working in Lytham St Annes
We cover every part of Lytham St Annes, including FY4 and FY8, and nearby Blackpool (5.6 miles) and Poulton-le-Fylde (6.3 miles).
Homes in and around Lytham St Annes vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. In a long, narrow Lytham St Annes en-suite, a walk-in tray along the back wall often works better than a square enclosure. If your Lytham St Annes bathroom has a bath that nobody uses, a walk-in shower in the same space is often a two or three day job.
Most of Lancashire is supplied with soft water. If that holds for your street in Lytham St Annes, limescale on shower glass and heads builds up slowly and a squeegee after use is usually enough. 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
- 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
- Silicone, a full-flow test for leaks and spray, and handover
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.
