Working in Colwyn Bay
We work right across Colwyn Bay — LL28, LL29 and LL31 — and in neighbouring Llandudno and Rhyl.
In Colwyn Bay, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If someone in your Colwyn Bay home is finding the bath side harder to step over, a low or level-access tray removes the problem. If the bath in your Colwyn Bay home is mainly used for storing things, a walk-in shower in the same space is a quick, contained job.
Supplies across most of Clwyd are moderately hard. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Colwyn Bay. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Removal of the bath, panel and taps, and disposal of the waste
- Grab rails and a fold-down seat if you want them
- A low-profile tray, or a former and tanking for a level-access floor
- A survey of the bath space, the waste position, the floor and your water system
Decisions to make first
Safety extras
A fold-down seat, grab rails and a slip-resistant tray cost little at the time of fitting and are much harder to add later.
Enclosure or walk-in
An enclosure with a door keeps all the water in and suits a shorter space. A walk-in panel makes the most of the full 1700 mm length an old bath leaves.
Rules that apply in Wales
In Wales, the Welsh Part P covers more electrical work than in England, and a new electric shower circuit must be notified. Disabled Facilities Grants in Wales can be up to £36,000, approved by the council before work begins.
