Shower Room Installation in Tunstall
Full bathroom installations, project-managed by one local team.
Shower rooms — distinct from full bathrooms — are increasingly the right answer in Tunstall homes where a second WC is needed and a bath isn't.
We design and install shower rooms from 1.6m² upwards, with full waterproofing and a finish that matches the rest of the house.
When Tunstall homeowners ask us about bathroom fitting, the first thing we look at is the room itself.
Shower Room Installation FAQs — Tunstall
- 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 Tunstall home.
- Can the shower be the only one in the Tunstall house?
- Yes — many Tunstall 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 Tunstall shower rooms run 5–8 working days from strip to handover.
- How long does a full bathroom in Tunstall typically take?
- A standard family bathroom in Tunstall is usually 7 – 12 working days from strip-out to handover, depending on tiling area and structural changes.
- Are you fully insured for work in Tunstall?
- Yes — we hold full public liability cover and every job in Tunstall comes with a written workmanship guarantee.
