Shower Installation in Market Harborough
A dependable shower is the first thing most Market Harborough homes ask for — maybe the old one's died in a Little Bowden terrace, maybe there's a bath going unused in a Lubenham cottage. Whether your shower has packed in, you're fed up with the bath, or you just want something better — the installers we connect you with fit showers properly. Not a handyman job with sealant and hope. Proper plumbing, proper tiling, proper waterproofing.
What the shower's fixing to decides a Market Harborough job — the solid Victorian brick in Little Bowden calls for different work than the plasterboard walls out at Farndon Fields. Most shower replacements are clean, tidy jobs with minimal disruption. You tell us what you want, your installer quotes it and fits it. If the old tray is cracked or the tiles behind are blown, that gets sorted too — not just swapping the unit and leaving you with problems behind the wall.
Bath-to-shower conversions are one of our most popular jobs across Market Harborough. Plenty of homes in Farndon Fields, Little Bowden, and the town centre have a bathroom with a bath that nobody uses. Ripping it out and fitting a proper walk-in shower gives you more space, easier access, and a bathroom that actually works for how you live. Your installer handles the full job — removal, plumbing, floor prep, tray, tiling, screen, and the shower unit itself.
Budget showers don't survive long here — Market Harborough's hard water gets into the valve and cartridge and finishes them early. Hard water in Market Harborough is the elephant in the room for any shower install. Anglian Water's chalk supply destroys cheap shower heads and shower mixer cartridges within a couple of years, so good-quality scale-resistant components are recommended for any new shower install. If you want longer-term protection for the install, we can also talk you through whether a water softener is worth fitting at the same time — it pays for itself in extended life on every fitting in the bathroom.
