Working in Oswestry

We work right across Oswestry — SY11 — and in neighbouring Shrewsbury and Wellington.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Oswestry: free survey, written quote, one team. In a long, narrow Oswestry en-suite, a walk-in tray along the back wall often works better than a square enclosure. We measure walk-in showers in Oswestry so the tray and panel are sized together, which is what keeps the spray in.

Water across much of Shropshire is moderately hard. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Oswestry. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

A thermostatic valve with a riser rail, a fixed head or both
Silicone, a full-flow test for leaks and spray, and handover
A low-profile stone-resin tray, or a floor former with a linear drain for a tiled level floor
Removal of the old bath or enclosure and making good to the walls and floor

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 Oswestry 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.

Is the water hard in Oswestry?

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.
