Working in Leek

As well as Leek itself (ST13), we survey in Biddulph, Congleton and Kidsgrove.

Leek gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If your Leek bathroom is upstairs on timber joists, we check their size and direction before planning the wet room floor. We quote wet rooms in Leek only after looking at the floor construction, because that is where most of the cost difference lies.

Most of Staffordshire has moderately hard water. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Leek. 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
A pre-formed floor former with a linear or centre drain, or a screed laid to fall
Floor strengthening or a ply overlay on timber floors so the surface does not flex
Strip-out, waste removal, a final flow test to the drain and handover

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 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 Leek: questions

How much does a wet room cost in Leek?

A wet room in Leek usually costs £5,900–£11,750 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 Leek.

Is the home survey in Leek 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 ST13 in Leek?

Yes. We cover all of Leek, including ST13, and nearby Biddulph, Congleton and Kidsgrove. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

What tiles should I use on a wet room floor?

Use porcelain with a matt or textured, slip-resistant finish. With a linear drain, larger tiles can be laid because the floor falls in one direction; with a centre drain, smaller tiles or mosaic follow the four-way fall more easily, and the extra grout lines add grip. Avoid polished stone or glossy tiles on a wet floor; see bathroom tiling.
