Working in Lancing

We cover every part of Lancing, including BN15, and nearby Shoreham-by-Sea (2.1 miles) and Worthing (2.4 miles).

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Lancing: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Lancing home has a concrete ground floor, a downstairs wet room may need the screed cut out to set the drain. For a wet room in a Lancing flat, the first step is the lease, because freeholder consent is often needed before any work starts.

Supplies across most of West Sussex are hard. If your supply in Lancing 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

Extractor fan and lighting by a qualified electrician, tested and certified, with underfloor heating if you choose it
A thermostatic shower valve, exposed or concealed, with heads to suit your water system
A pre-formed floor former with a linear or centre drain, or a screed laid to fall
Strip-out, waste removal, a final flow test to the drain and handover

Decisions to make first

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.

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 Lancing: questions

What is the price of a wet room in Lancing?

Is the home survey in Lancing 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 BN15 in Lancing?

Yes. We cover all of Lancing, including BN15, and nearby Shoreham-by-Sea, Worthing and Portslade. 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.
