Working in Crowthorne

As well as Crowthorne itself (GU47, RG40 and RG45), we survey in Sandhurst, Yateley and Camberley.

Homes in and around Crowthorne vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If you are planning a wet room in Crowthorne for level access, we design the fall and drain so the floor is flush from the doorway. For a wet room in a Crowthorne flat, the first step is the lease, because freeholder consent is often needed before any work starts.

Water across much of Berkshire is hard. If your supply in Crowthorne 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

A survey of the floor construction, the joist size and direction or the concrete slab, and the route to the soil stack
Extractor fan and lighting by a qualified electrician, tested and certified, with underfloor heating if you choose it
Strip-out, waste removal, a final flow test to the drain and handover
A thermostatic shower valve, exposed or concealed, with heads to suit your water system

Decisions to make first

Former or screed

A pre-formed board gives a consistent fall and suits timber floors. A sand and cement screed suits concrete slabs and larger shower areas.

Floor tile

Matt or textured porcelain with good slip resistance. Mosaic gives extra grip on a centre-drain floor because of its many grout lines.

Rules that apply in England

In England, a new drain connection or changes at the soil stack can be building-regulations work under Part H, and new circuits or changes to the wiring in the room are notifiable under Part P. If the wet room is a newly formed bathroom, Approved Document F requires extract of 15 litres per second intermittent or 8 litres per second continuous.

More about wet rooms

Wet rooms in Crowthorne: questions

What is the price of a wet room in Crowthorne?

A wet room in Crowthorne usually costs £6,700–£13,500 including VAT. Where you land in that range depends on the size of the room, whether the layout changes and the products you choose. After the free survey you get an itemised written quote, and the price is fixed in writing once the layout and products are agreed.

Is the home survey in Crowthorne really free?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

Do you cover GU47 in Crowthorne?

Yes. We cover all of Crowthorne, including GU47, RG40 and RG45, and nearby Sandhurst, Yateley and Camberley. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Crowthorne?

Can I have a wet room in a flat?

Often, but check your lease first. Freeholder consent is commonly needed, especially where the drainage or the floor changes, and the risk of a leak into the flat below means the tanking and drain connection must be done with care. Sound insulation in the floor matters too.
