Working in Brymbo
We work right across Brymbo — LL11 and LL12 — and in neighbouring Wrexham and Rhosllannerchrugog.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Brymbo: free survey, written quote, one team. Survey visits in Brymbo cover the bath, the tiles around it and the waste route, so the quote reflects your bathroom rather than a standard job. If you are in Brymbo and considering a freestanding bath, the survey includes a check of the floor and joists before you choose.
Most of Clwyd has moderately hard water. Taps and wastes will need an occasional descale, and chrome or brushed finishes are easier to keep clean than polished brass. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Levelling the bath on adjustable feet or a cradle, with timber battens fixed to the walls under the rim
- Filling the bath before sealing, so the silicone cures with the bath at its heaviest
- Leak testing at the waste, overflow and taps, taking the old bath away and a final clean
- Supply of the new bath, taps or filler, waste and overflow, and bath panel
Decisions to make first
Shower bath
A P-shaped or L-shaped bath is wider at the shower end, giving room to stand and space for a fixed screen instead of a curtain.
Freestanding bath
Acrylic freestanding baths are manageable on most floors; stone resin and cast iron are much heavier when full. You need room to clean round the bath and a plan for where the waste and filler come up.
Rules that apply in Wales
Wales sets its own building regulations, including a Part P with a wider list of notifiable electrical work than England. A like-for-like bath swap is not usually building regulations work, but speak to building control before strengthening a floor for a heavy bath.
