The service

Replace an unused bath with a shower that suits you

Many homes have a bath that's used once a month and climbed over every day. Converting it to a walk-in shower makes the room feel larger, cuts cleaning time and removes one of the most common slip risks in the house.

John has completed bath-to-shower conversions including one for a customer's 92-year-old mother, after which her daughter booked a more extensive job of her own. The work covers removal of the bath, new waste and supply, a properly sealed shower area, tiling and a neat finish.

Because John manages the whole conversion, plumbing, waterproofing, tiling and electrics are coordinated as one job rather than several separate visits.

What happens if you wait

The risk of putting it off

Climbing in and out of a bath to shower is one of the easiest ways to slip at home, and over-bath showers often leak where you can't see.

Slips and falls

Stepping over a high bath edge onto a wet surface is a daily risk, particularly for older people or anyone recovering from injury.

Leaks around the bath

Over-bath showers rely on sealant and screens. When these fail, water runs down the side of the bath into the floor.

Wasted space

A bath you don't use takes up the largest area in the room and makes it harder to clean around.

Common mistakes homeowners make

  • Fitting a shower tray without checking the floor can take it
  • Choosing a tray that's too high to step in easily
  • Relying on sealant alone instead of proper waterproofing
  • Choosing a shower tray and screen without thinking about everyday use
  • Leaving the conversion until a fall forces a rushed job

In detail

Conversion options

The right conversion depends on the room size, floor construction and who'll use the shower.

Low-profile shower trays

A slim tray fitted in the bath's space gives a small step-in height and a familiar, easy-to-clean base. It's the most common choice for straightforward conversions.

Level-access and walk-in showers

For the easiest entry, the floor can be built up or adjusted to give a minimal step. Suitability depends on floor construction and the waste route, which John checks at the site visit.

Screens and doors

A fixed walk-in panel keeps the space open; hinged or sliding doors contain spray in tighter rooms. Placement is planned around the shower head.

Tiling and wall finishes

The area left by the bath is re-tiled or finished to match. Full re-tiling is often the neatest result in older bathrooms.

Keeping a bath elsewhere

In homes with more than one bathroom, converting one bath to a shower while keeping a bath elsewhere gives the best of both.
