Working in Great Yarmouth

As well as Great Yarmouth itself (NR29, NR30 and NR31), we survey in Norwich, East Dereham and Thetford.

In Great Yarmouth, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If your Great Yarmouth 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 Great Yarmouth so the tray and panel are sized together, which is what keeps the spray in.

Water across much of Norfolk is very hard. If your supply in Great Yarmouth 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

Tanking to the shower walls, and to the floor where it is tiled
Wall tiling, with an optional recessed niche
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.

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.

Is the home survey in Great Yarmouth really free?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

Do you cover NR29 in Great Yarmouth?

Yes. We cover all of Great Yarmouth, including NR29, NR30 and NR31, and nearby Norwich, East Dereham and Thetford. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Do walk-in showers splash?

A walk-in shower splashes when the tray is too short, the panel too narrow or the head points towards the open end. A long tray, a panel covering most of its length and a head mounted at the closed end keep the water in. In a tight space, a small hinged return panel at the open end helps.
