Working in Newton-le-Willows
As well as Newton-le-Willows itself (WA2, WA3 and WA12), we survey in Golborne, Ashton in Makerfield and Haydock.
Newton-le-Willows gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. For a walk-in shower in Newton-le-Willows, we check the water pressure first, so the head you choose will actually perform. If your Newton-le-Willows 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 Merseyside is supplied with soft water. If that holds for your street in Newton-le-Willows, 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
- Silicone, a full-flow test for leaks and spray, and handover
- An 8 mm or 10 mm toughened glass panel with a wall profile and support arm, or a frameless fixing
- A low-profile stone-resin tray, or a floor former with a linear drain for a tiled level floor
- Tanking to the shower walls, and to the floor where it is tiled
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.
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.
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.
