What's the difference between a shower room and a bathroom?

A shower room has no bath — typically WC, basin and shower only. It uses less space and is easier to fit into a second-bathroom slot in a Burslem home.

Can the shower be the only one in the Burslem house?

Yes — many Burslem homes now run with a single shower room rather than a bath. The only consideration is family preference and resale; structurally and functionally it's fine.

What size shower works best?

900mm square is the floor; 1000mm offers noticeably more comfort. Walk-in formers above 1200mm need more careful waste planning.

How long does a shower room take to fit?

Most Burslem shower rooms run 5–8 working days from strip to handover.

Are you fully insured for work in Burslem?

Yes — we hold full public liability cover and every job in Burslem comes with a written workmanship guarantee.

Do you provide a fixed-price quote before starting?

Always. After a free home visit in Burslem we send a fully itemised, fixed-price quotation — no surprises on invoice day.
