A shower enclosure in Indirapuram is almost always a replacement, in an occupied flat, inside a permitted work window, with neighbours on every side. None of that is difficult. All of it decides how the day is planned, and planning it properly is the difference between a job that finishes and a job that gets stopped.
Sizing the day to the RWA's window
A shower enclosure cannot be left halfway. The glass either stands and is sealed or it does not stand at all, which is not true of most trades that come into a flat.
So the day is sized to what will genuinely complete inside the permitted hours - usually around ten to five - rather than started and carried over.
The noisy part comes first: cutting out the old screen, scraping back the hardened silicone, drilling the tile for the new fixings. Done at the start of the window rather than at four in the afternoon, which is both what the RWA notice expects and what your neighbours would prefer. The sealing and setting that follow are quiet.
What we find behind a fifteen-year-old screen
The old screen has been sealed to the tile since the flat was new, and taking it off is where the surprises live.
Sometimes a tile lifts with the silicone. Sometimes the grout behind has failed and the wall is damp, because the seal gave up years ago and the water went into the wall rather than onto the floor.
We look for this while measuring rather than on fitting day, by checking the joint and the wall around it. Where there is damp, the honest order is to let it dry and put the cause right, then glaze. Sealing new glass onto a wet wall hides the problem for about a year and then you pay for the job twice.
The tray, the fall, and where the water actually goes
Most Indirapuram bathrooms have no shower tray - the floor is the tray, and it was tiled to fall towards a drain.
After fifteen years that fall is sometimes not what it was, and sometimes it was never quite right. If the glass line ends up standing on a high point, water arrives on the wrong side of the seal and runs out under the door. The seal has not failed. The water never reached it.
So we put a level on the floor while measuring, not just on the walls. Moving the glass line a few inches often solves it completely. Where it cannot, the floor needs attention first, and that is worth knowing before glass is ordered rather than after it is fitted.
How the job works
- Tell us about the jobSend a few photos, rough sizes and what you need. Use WhatsApp or the form. For a repair, a short video of the door moving helps a lot.
- We call you backUsually the same day. Where we can, we give you a rough price on the call. Then you know if a visit is worth your time.
- We come and measureWe measure the opening. We also check the walls, floor, ceiling and the way in. Your glass is made to these final sizes, so they must be right.
- You get a written priceIt shows the glass, the fittings and the fitting work as separate lines. If anything about the job changes, we tell you before we go ahead.
- We make it and fit itYou approve the price and pay the advance. Then we make your glass. Our team delivers it, fits it, checks the doors line up and clears the site.
