Working in Crawley

As well as Crawley itself (RH10 and RH11), we survey in Horley, Horsham and East Grinstead.

Across a large town like Crawley, 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 Crawley so the tray and panel are sized together, which is what keeps the spray in. If your Crawley shower enclosure has a leaking door seal or a cracked tray, a walk-in panel removes the door altogether.

Most of West Sussex has hard water. If your supply in Crawley is the same, limescale on shower glass and heads is a real issue: easy-clean glass, rub-clean nozzles and a squeegee make a big difference. 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
Silicone, a full-flow test for leaks and spray, and handover
An 8 mm or 10 mm toughened glass panel with a wall profile and support arm, or a frameless fixing
A thermostatic valve with a riser rail, a fixed head or both

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.

Glass thickness

8 mm toughened glass is standard; 10 mm feels heavier and more solid. An easy-clean coating keeps limescale off clear glass in hard-water areas.

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 Crawley: questions

How much does a walk-in shower cost in Crawley?

A walk-in shower in Crawley usually costs £2,800–£6,700 including VAT. Room size, layout changes and your choice of products move the figure within that range. The free survey gives you an itemised quote, fixed in writing once the details are agreed.

Do you cover RH10 and RH11 in Crawley?

Is the water hard in Crawley?

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

Building control for Crawley 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.

How big does a walk-in shower need to be?

A walk-in shower with no door works well at 1400 mm long or more, with the glass panel covering most of that length. At 1200 by 800 mm it is still usable, but spray is more likely to escape the open end. A width of 800 to 900 mm is enough for most people.
