Working in Swansea
As well as Swansea itself (SA1, SA2 and SA5), we survey in Briton Ferry, Neath and Llanelli.
In a city the size of Swansea, parking and access for a skip are worth sorting before the start date — we will ask at the survey. If your Swansea bathroom was refitted recently and you like the rest of it, we can convert just the bath area and finish the new tiling neatly against the old. If you are applying for a grant towards a bath to shower conversion in Swansea, we provide the itemised written quote the council will ask for.
Supplies across most of West Glamorgan are soft. If that holds for your street in Swansea, 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
- Boarding, tanking and re-tiling of the shower walls
- A low-profile tray, or a former and tanking for a level-access floor
- Grab rails and a fold-down seat if you want them
- A glass enclosure, walk-in panel or frameless screen
Decisions to make first
How much to re-tile
Re-tile just the shower walls, or take the chance to re-tile the whole room so new and old tiles never have to match.
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.
