Working in Burntwood
We work right across Burntwood — WS7 — and in neighbouring Great Wyrley and Lichfield.
In Burntwood, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. In a long, narrow Burntwood en-suite, a walk-in tray along the back wall often works better than a square enclosure. If your Burntwood shower enclosure has a leaking door seal or a cracked tray, a walk-in panel removes the door altogether.
Most of Staffordshire has moderately hard water. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Burntwood. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Wall tiling, with an optional recessed niche
- An 8 mm or 10 mm toughened glass panel with a wall profile and support arm, or a frameless fixing
- A survey of the space, the waste position, water pressure and the hot-water system
- A thermostatic valve with a riser rail, a fixed head or both
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.
