Working in Great Yarmouth

We cover every part of Great Yarmouth, including NR29, NR30 and NR31, and nearby Norwich (18.2 miles) and East Dereham (33.8 miles).

In Great Yarmouth, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. We quote wet rooms in Great Yarmouth only after looking at the floor construction, because that is where most of the cost difference lies. In a compact Great Yarmouth bathroom, a wet room frees the space a tray and enclosure would take, but expect the whole floor to get wet.

Water across much of Norfolk is very hard. If your supply in Great Yarmouth 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 thermostatic shower valve, exposed or concealed, with heads to suit your water system
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
A frameless glass screen fixed to the wall and floor

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.

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 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 Great Yarmouth: questions

What is the price of a wet room in Great Yarmouth?

A wet room in Great Yarmouth usually costs £6,400–£12,750 including VAT. Expect the lower end for a like-for-like job with standard products, and the upper end if things move or you choose premium finishes. Your quote is itemised and fixed in writing once 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 Great Yarmouth.

Is the home survey in Great Yarmouth 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 NR29 in Great Yarmouth?

Yes. We cover all of Great Yarmouth, including NR29, NR30 and NR31, and nearby Norwich, East Dereham and Thetford. 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.
