Working in Solihull

We cover every part of Solihull, including B90, B91 and B92, and nearby Shirley (1.6 miles) and Acocks Green (2.9 miles).

Across a large town like Solihull, homes range from older terraces to newer estates; the survey tells us which pipework and floor we are dealing with. In a long, narrow Solihull en-suite, a walk-in tray along the back wall often works better than a square enclosure. If you are planning ahead in Solihull for easier access, a low-profile walk-in tray gives most of the benefit without a full wet room.

Supplies across the West Midlands range from soft to hard depending on the source. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Solihull. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Removal of the old bath or enclosure and making good to the walls and floor
Wall tiling, with an optional recessed niche
A survey of the space, the waste position, water pressure and the hot-water system
Tanking to the shower walls, and to the floor where it is tiled

Decisions to make first

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.

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.

Walk-in showers in Solihull: questions

What is the price of a walk-in shower in Solihull?

Is the water hard in Solihull?

Who handles building control for a walk-in shower in Solihull?

Building control for Solihull is handled by the local council or an approved inspector. If your job needs sign-off — for example a new circuit, new drainage or a new extractor where there was none — we tell you at the survey and handle the notification as part of the work.

Are walk-in showers easy to clean?

Easier than an enclosure, because there are no door seals, runners or hinges to collect grime. A single panel with an easy-clean coating needs a quick squeegee after use, especially with hard water, and large tiles mean fewer grout lines to scrub.
