Shower Over Bath Installation in Hanley
Full bathroom installations, project-managed by one local team.
A shower over the bath in a Hanley home is the right answer when you want both, but only if the tiling, screen and thermostatic mixer are all specified for shower duty — not just retro-fitted to a bath setup.
We tank the wall behind the shower zone, fit a proper glass bath screen (not a curtain) hinged into the tile field, and plumb a thermostatic mixer with a diverter rather than a bath-tap-and-riser afterthought.
Bathroom Fitting in Hanley isn't a one-template job — every house we walk into reveals something different.

Shower Over Bath Installation FAQs — Hanley
- Do I need to re-tile the Hanley bathroom to add a shower over the bath?
- The shower wall(s), yes — they need tanking and full-height tiling. The rest of the room only if it's cosmetically time.
- Glass screen or shower curtain?
- Glass — a hinged 6-8mm screen fixed into the tile field. Curtains dribble water onto the floor on every use and rarely last 12 months in a Hanley bathroom.
- Thermostatic mixer or standard?
- Thermostatic — anti-scald, stable temperature when someone else runs a tap elsewhere. Standard on every Hanley shower-over-bath install.
- How long does it take?
- 4-6 working days on a standard Hanley install if we're re-tiling one wall and fitting the screen and mixer.
- How quickly can you start a job in Hanley?
- Lead time is usually two to five weeks from a confirmed quote, depending on the spec and our current schedule across the Staffordshire side.
- Are you fully insured for work in Hanley?
- Yes — we hold full public liability cover and every job in Hanley comes with a written workmanship guarantee.
