Working in Lossiemouth

We cover every part of Lossiemouth, including IV31, and nearby Elgin (5.1 miles) and Buckie (12.3 miles).

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Lossiemouth: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Lossiemouth shower enclosure has a leaking door seal or a cracked tray, a walk-in panel removes the door altogether. We measure walk-in showers in Lossiemouth so the tray and panel are sized together, which is what keeps the spray in.

Most of Moray is supplied with soft water. If that holds for your street in Lossiemouth, 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
Wall tiling, with an optional recessed niche
A thermostatic valve with a riser rail, a fixed head or both
A survey of the space, the waste position, water pressure and the hot-water system

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 Scotland

In Scotland, a straight swap from a bath or enclosure to a walk-in shower does not normally need a building warrant, though altering the drainage may. Water fittings must meet the Scottish Water Byelaws 2014.

Is the water hard in Lossiemouth?

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.
