Working in Poulton-le-Fylde
As well as Poulton-le-Fylde itself (FY2, FY3 and FY6), we survey in Blackpool, Thornton-Cleveleys and Lytham St Annes.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Poulton-le-Fylde: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Poulton-le-Fylde shower enclosure has a leaking door seal or a cracked tray, a walk-in panel removes the door altogether. If your Poulton-le-Fylde 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 Lancashire is soft. If that holds for your street in Poulton-le-Fylde, 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
- An 8 mm or 10 mm toughened glass panel with a wall profile and support arm, or a frameless fixing
- Removal of the old bath or enclosure and making good to the walls and floor
- A thermostatic valve with a riser rail, a fixed head or both
- Silicone, a full-flow test for leaks and spray, and handover
Decisions to make first
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.
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.
