Walk-in shower conversions in Woodford
Shower Installation & Repair Woodford
I'm Ion from Pro Plumbing Team, and I've been converting bathtubs into beautiful walk-in showers across Woodford for over a decade. Just last week, I helped an elderly couple on Elmhurst Gardens transform their high-sided Victorian bathtub into a safe, accessible walk-in shower with grab rails and non-slip flooring - the relief and independence this gave them was truly rewarding to witness.
As Woodford's trusted bath to walk-in shower conversion specialist, I understand that many homeowners reach a point where climbing in and out of a bathtub becomes difficult, unsafe, or simply impractical for their needs. Whether you're planning a conversion for safety reasons in a period property near Woodford Green, creating more space in a compact bathroom near Woodford Station, or simply prefer the convenience of a modern shower in one of the family homes around South Woodford, I make the conversion process smooth and stress-free.
The biggest concern I hear from Woodford residents is whether their existing bathroom space will work for a walk-in shower conversion. That's why I offer my comprehensive WhatsApp assessment service - send photos of your current bathtub and bathroom layout, and I'll evaluate the conversion possibilities and provide you with a detailed quote covering everything from removal to installation and finishing.
Converting your bath to a walk-in shower isn't just about accessibility - it's about creating a modern, practical bathroom solution that enhances daily comfort, improves safety, and often increases your property value. With my proven conversion techniques and commitment to quality installation, every conversion I complete transforms both functionality and style.
Our Bath to Walk-in Shower Conversion Process
Comprehensive Space Assessment
Every conversion in Woodford begins with thorough evaluation of your existing bathroom layout and plumbing configuration. Through my WhatsApp assessment service, you can send photos of your current bathtub, surrounding area, and bathroom dimensions. I'll assess conversion feasibility, drainage requirements, and space optimisation opportunities to ensure your new walk-in shower fits perfectly and functions flawlessly.
Professional Bathtub Removal
I carefully remove your existing bathtub whilst protecting surrounding tiles and bathroom surfaces. This includes disconnecting all plumbing connections, safely extracting the bathtub through doorways and staircases (particularly important in Woodford's period properties), and disposing of the old unit responsibly in compliance with local regulations.
Shower Area Preparation & Waterproofing
Once the bathtub is removed, I prepare the area for your new walk-in shower installation. This includes creating proper drainage falls, installing waterproof membranes, and ensuring all surfaces are perfectly prepared for tiling and fixture installation. I pay particular attention to waterproofing to prevent future moisture issues.
Walk-in Shower Installation & Finishing
Using quality materials and proven installation techniques, I install your new walk-in shower complete with appropriate flooring, wall panels or tiling, shower enclosure, and fixtures. I ensure proper drainage, optimal water pressure, and include safety features such as grab rails and non-slip surfaces where required.
Walk-in Shower Conversion Options for Woodford Homes
Standard Walk-in Shower Conversions
Converting traditional bathtubs into modern walk-in showers with low-level or flush shower trays for easy access. These conversions include quality shower enclosures, contemporary fixtures, and practical storage solutions. Perfect for improving accessibility whilst maintaining the bathroom's existing footprint and maximising space efficiency.
Accessible & Mobility-Friendly Conversions
Specialist conversions designed for residents with mobility concerns, featuring level-access showers, grab rails, fold-down seats, and anti-slip surfaces. I work closely with occupational therapy recommendations and accessibility requirements to create safe, independent bathing solutions that enhance quality of life.
Luxury Walk-in Shower Conversions
Premium conversions featuring frameless glass enclosures, rainfall showerheads, thermostatic controls, and high-end finishes such as natural stone or designer tiles. These conversions create spa-like experiences whilst improving accessibility and adding significant value to your Woodford property.
Period Property Conversions
Woodford's Victorian and Edwardian homes often present unique conversion challenges including original cast iron bathtubs, heritage plumbing, and space constraints. I've developed specialist techniques for working within these properties whilst preserving character features and ensuring modern performance standards.
Space Optimisation Solutions
Many Woodford bathrooms benefit from clever design approaches that maximise the space gained from bathtub removal. I create storage solutions, improved circulation space, and enhanced functionality that makes compact bathrooms feel significantly larger and more practical.
Plumbing System Upgrades
Conversions often provide opportunities to upgrade aging plumbing systems, improve water pressure, and modernise controls for better performance and efficiency.

Last month, I converted a deep Victorian bathtub for a family on High Road, creating a spacious walk-in shower that transformed their daily routine. The conversion included level access, contemporary tiling, and a rainfall shower system.
