Working in Biddulph

In Biddulph we cover ST8; we also cover Kidsgrove, 3.3 miles away, and Congleton.

Biddulph gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. In a long, narrow Biddulph en-suite, a walk-in tray along the back wall often works better than a square enclosure. If your Biddulph shower enclosure has a leaking door seal or a cracked tray, a walk-in panel removes the door altogether.

Supplies across most of Staffordshire are moderately hard. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Biddulph. 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 low-profile stone-resin tray, or a floor former with a linear drain for a tiled level floor
An 8 mm or 10 mm toughened glass panel with a wall profile and support arm, or a frameless fixing

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.

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.

Do you cover ST8 in Biddulph?

Yes. We cover all of Biddulph, including ST8, and nearby Kidsgrove, Congleton and Leek. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Biddulph?

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.
