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 Tunstall install.

Can I have a walk-in shower instead of a bath?

Yes, this is one of our most popular Tunstall 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 Tunstall 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.

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.

How quickly can you start a job in Tunstall?

Lead time is usually two to five weeks from a confirmed quote, depending on the spec and our current schedule across the Staffordshire side.

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.

If you're weighing up bathroom fitting in Tunstall, the local detail matters more than the brochure spec.
