Working in Clydebank

In Clydebank we cover G60 and G81; we also cover Erskine, 1.7 miles away, and Renfrew.

Homes in and around Clydebank 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 Clydebank for level access, we design the fall and drain so the floor is flush from the doorway. If your Clydebank bathroom is upstairs on timber joists, we check their size and direction before planning the wet room floor.

Most of Greater Glasgow is supplied with soft water. If that holds for your street in Clydebank, 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

Slip-resistant porcelain floor tiles and wall tiling
Strip-out, waste removal, a final flow test to the drain and handover
A survey of the floor construction, the joist size and direction or the concrete slab, and the route to the soil stack
Full tanking of the floor and the shower walls, with sealed corners, pipe collars and a sealed drain connection

Decisions to make first

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.

Underfloor heating

Electric underfloor heating under the tiles dries the floor quickly after a shower; it is typically £700 to £1,500 for a bathroom.

Rules that apply in Scotland

In Scotland, a wet room that alters the drainage, involves structural work to the floor or forms a new bathroom may need a building warrant; a straight refit usually does not. Water fittings must meet the Scottish Water Byelaws 2014.

Is the water hard in Clydebank?

Is a wet room better than a walk-in shower?

A wet room gives a completely level floor and a seamless finish, but costs more because the whole floor is tanked. A walk-in shower uses a low-profile tray and a glass panel, is quicker to fit and costs less. If you need level access, a wet room is the right choice; if you just want an open shower, a walk-in is usually enough. Our guide to wet rooms and walk-in showers goes further.
