Working in Biddulph

We cover every part of Biddulph, including ST8, and nearby Kidsgrove (3.3 miles) and Congleton (3.5 miles).

Biddulph gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If your Biddulph bathroom is upstairs on timber joists, we check their size and direction before planning the wet room floor. If your Biddulph home has a concrete ground floor, a downstairs wet room may need the screed cut out to set the drain.

Water across much of Staffordshire is moderately hard. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Biddulph. 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
Extractor fan and lighting by a qualified electrician, tested and certified, with underfloor heating if you choose it
A frameless glass screen fixed to the wall and floor
Full tanking of the floor and the shower walls, with sealed corners, pipe collars and a sealed drain connection

Decisions to make first

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.

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 Biddulph: questions

How much should I budget for a wet room in Biddulph?

A wet room in Biddulph usually costs £5,900–£11,750 including VAT. The final figure comes down to what you choose and what we find at the survey; your written quote lists every item so you can see where the money goes.

Is the home survey in Biddulph 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 ST8 in Biddulph?

Yes. We cover all of Biddulph, including ST8, and nearby Kidsgrove, Congleton and Leek. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Biddulph?

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.
