Working in Auchterarder

We cover every part of Auchterarder, including PH3, and nearby Crieff (7.3 miles) and Perth (12.6 miles).

Auchterarder gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If your Auchterarder home has a concrete ground floor, a downstairs wet room may need the screed cut out to set the drain. If you are planning a wet room in Auchterarder for level access, we design the fall and drain so the floor is flush from the doorway.

Supplies across most of Perth and Kinross are soft. If that holds for your street in Auchterarder, 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

Full tanking of the floor and the shower walls, with sealed corners, pipe collars and a sealed drain connection
Extractor fan and lighting by a qualified electrician, tested and certified, with underfloor heating if you choose it
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

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.

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.

More about wet rooms

Wet rooms in Auchterarder: questions

Do you cover PH3 in Auchterarder?

Is the water hard in Auchterarder?

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.
