Working in Burton upon Trent
We cover every part of Burton upon Trent, including DE14 and DE15, and nearby Swadlincote (4.2 miles) and Derby (10.6 miles).
Across a large town like Burton upon Trent, homes range from older terraces to newer estates; the survey tells us which pipework and floor we are dealing with. We measure walk-in showers in Burton upon Trent so the tray and panel are sized together, which is what keeps the spray in. If your Burton upon Trent 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 Burton upon Trent. 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
- Silicone, a full-flow test for leaks and spray, and handover
- Wall tiling, with an optional recessed niche
- A thermostatic valve with a riser rail, a fixed head or both
Decisions to make first
Tray length
Go long rather than wide. A 1400 to 1700 mm tray with a 900 to 1200 mm panel leaves a dry walkway; a 1200 mm tray works but gives less margin for spray.
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.
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.
