Walk-In Shower Installation in Tunstall
Full bathroom installations, project-managed by one local team.
A proper walk-in shower in a Tunstall 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.
We've fitted bathroom fitting in Tunstall long enough to know the houses inside out.

Walk-In Shower Installation FAQs — Tunstall
