Working in Ystalyfera
We work right across Ystalyfera — SA9 — and in neighbouring Neath and Clydach.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Ystalyfera: free survey, written quote, one team. If you are applying for a grant towards a bath to shower conversion in Ystalyfera, we provide the itemised written quote the council will ask for. If someone in your Ystalyfera home is finding the bath side harder to step over, a low or level-access tray removes the problem.
Supplies across most of Powys are soft. If that holds for your street in Ystalyfera, limescale on shower glass and heads builds up slowly and a squeegee after use is usually enough. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Silicone, a full-flow test and a tidy finish where the new tiling meets the old
- Boarding, tanking and re-tiling of the shower walls
- Repair or replacement of floorboards where the bath has left them soft or damaged
- A survey of the bath space, the waste position, the floor and your water system
Decisions to make first
Low tray or level floor
A low-profile tray has a small lip. A level-access floor removes the step altogether but needs a former, tanking and a linear drain.
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.
