Shower Enclosure Replacement in Stoke
Full bathroom installations, project-managed by one local team.
A lot of Stoke bathrooms don't need a full refit — they need the shower enclosure taking out and replaced properly. The tile's fine, the vanity's fine, but the tray's cracked, the screen leaks and the seals have blackened.
We swap the enclosure without gutting the room: substrate checked behind the old tray, new upstands sealed to the tanking membrane, glass hinges torqued so the door drops don't come back in three months.
When Stoke homeowners ask us about bathroom fitting, the first thing we look at is the room itself.

Shower Enclosure Replacement FAQs — Stoke
- How long does an enclosure swap take in Stoke?
- Typically 2–4 working days: strip, substrate check, new tray set, screen fitted, sealed and left to cure. Faster than a refit because the surrounding tile stays.
- Will you find damp behind the old tray?
- On roughly 1 in 3 Stoke enclosure swaps we find some moisture in the substrate. We replace with WBP ply or cement board and photograph the repair for your file.
- Can any tray fit into the existing space?
- Not always — we measure the tile line and existing waste position first. Sometimes a 900×900 slot needs a bespoke tray to hit the exact tile course.
- How long do the seals last?
- Two-part silicone with mould inhibitor: usually 5–7 years in a busy Stoke bathroom. Cheap silicone starts going black inside 12 months — we don't use it.
- How long does a full bathroom in Stoke typically take?
- A standard family bathroom in Stoke is usually 7 – 12 working days from strip-out to handover, depending on tiling area and structural changes.
- How quickly can you start a job in Stoke?
- Lead time is usually two to five weeks from a confirmed quote, depending on the spec and our current schedule across the Staffordshire side.
