Working in Wigston Magna
We cover every part of Wigston Magna, including LE2, LE8 and LE18, and nearby Oadby (1.8 miles) and Leicester (4.3 miles).
Homes in and around Wigston Magna vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If you are planning ahead in Wigston Magna for easier access, a low-profile walk-in tray gives most of the benefit without a full wet room. We measure walk-in showers in Wigston Magna so the tray and panel are sized together, which is what keeps the spray in.
Most of Leicestershire has hard water. If your supply in Wigston Magna 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
- Silicone, a full-flow test for leaks and spray, and handover
- A survey of the space, the waste position, water pressure and the hot-water system
- Wall tiling, with an optional recessed niche
- Removal of the old bath or enclosure and making good to the walls and floor
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.
Valve
An exposed bar valve with a riser rail is easy to fit and service. A concealed valve hides the pipework and suits a fixed overhead head.
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.
