Working in Lisburn

We work right across Lisburn — BT17, BT26, BT27 and 1 more postcode districts — and in neighbouring Belfast and Castlereagh.

In a city the size of Lisburn, parking and access for a skip are worth sorting before the start date — we will ask at the survey. In a compact Lisburn bathroom, a wet room frees the space a tray and enclosure would take, but expect the whole floor to get wet. If your Lisburn bathroom is upstairs on timber joists, we check their size and direction before planning the wet room floor.

Water across much of County Antrim is soft. If that holds for your street in Lisburn, limescale on shower glass and heads builds up slowly and a squeegee after use is usually enough. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Strip-out, waste removal, a final flow test to the drain and handover
Full tanking of the floor and the shower walls, with sealed corners, pipe collars and a sealed drain connection
Slip-resistant porcelain floor tiles and wall tiling
Floor strengthening or a ply overlay on timber floors so the surface does not flex

Decisions to make first

Screen size

A screen of 1200 mm or more keeps spray off the rest of the room in most layouts. In a very small wet room, expect the whole floor to get wet.

Open or screened

A fully open shower with no glass only works in a larger room, with the basin, WC and towels well away from the spray.

Rules that apply in Northern Ireland

In Northern Ireland, building control covers new drainage, ventilation and structural changes to the floor. There is no Part P, but the electrics should be tested and certified to BS 7671.

More about wet rooms

Wet rooms in Lisburn: questions

How much does a wet room cost in Lisburn?

A wet room in Lisburn usually costs £5,300–£10,500 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.

How long does a wet room take?

Allow 5–10 working days on site for most jobs, plus the lead time for products after you approve the quote. We give you a day-by-day plan before work starts in Lisburn.

Is the home survey in Lisburn 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 BT17 in Lisburn?

Yes. We cover all of Lisburn, including BT17, BT26, BT27 and BT28, and nearby Belfast, Castlereagh and Newtownabbey. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Can you have a wet room on a wooden floor?

Yes. On a timber floor, the former usually sits down between the joists so the finished floor stays level, and the joists may need trimming, strengthening or extra noggins. The floor must be stiff, often with a ply overlay, so it does not flex and crack the tiles or the tanking. We check the joists at the survey before quoting.
