Walk-In Shower Installation in Fenton
Full bathroom installations, project-managed by one local team.
A proper walk-in shower in a Fenton home isn't just a screen on a tray — it's a tanked floor, a properly bonded substrate, and a tray (or wet-floor former) that's been picked to suit the joists and the door threshold.
We install everything from a single fixed glass panel in a 900mm enclosure up to full 1700mm walk-throughs with a low-profile tray and frameless screens.
Fenton is one of the areas we work in most weeks — so bathroom fitting jobs here come with a working knowledge of the street layouts.

Walk-In Shower Installation FAQs — Fenton
- Do you tank the walls and floor for a walk-in shower?
- Always. We use a liquid tanking membrane behind tiles in the shower zone and onto the floor lip before any tile goes down — non-negotiable on every Fenton install.
- Can I have a walk-in shower instead of a bath?
- Yes, this is one of our most popular Fenton jobs. We remove the bath, re-board, tank, and fit a low-profile tray or wet-floor former in the same footprint.
- How long does a walk-in shower install take?
- Typical Fenton install is 5–8 working days from strip-out to handover, including tiling and silicone cure time.
- What about frameless glass screens?
- We fit 8mm and 10mm frameless screens with brushed brass, chrome or matt black brackets — your choice at the design stage.
- Can you fit a bathroom in a Victorian terrace without losing too much space?
- Yes — much of our work in Fenton is in narrow Victorian terraces. We typically reset the door swing, move the basin onto a wall-hung run and recess the WC cistern to free up usable floor.
- How quickly can you start a job in Fenton?
- Lead time is usually two to five weeks from a confirmed quote, depending on the spec and our current schedule across the Staffordshire side.

About Fenton
Fenton sits in Staffordshire, served by Stoke-on-Trent City Council, with postcodes ST4. Fenton — the forgotten town — is a mix of tight terraces around the A50, ex-council semis at Mount Pleasant and pockets of new-build infill on cleared pottery land. Main routes through are A50 and A5007, which is why our vans pass close to Fenton most days.
