Working in Clydach
As well as Clydach itself (SA6, SA7 and SA8), we survey in Neath, Swansea and Briton Ferry.
Clydach gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If someone in your Clydach home is finding the bath side harder to step over, a low or level-access tray removes the problem. If the bath in your Clydach home is mainly used for storing things, a walk-in shower in the same space is a quick, contained job.
Supplies across most of West Glamorgan are soft. If that holds for your street in Clydach, 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
- A glass enclosure, walk-in panel or frameless screen
- 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
- Boarding, tanking and re-tiling of the shower walls
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.
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.
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.
