Working in Merthyr Tydfil

As well as Merthyr Tydfil itself (CF47 and CF48), we survey in Aberdare, Rhondda and Ebbw Vale.

In Merthyr Tydfil, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If your Merthyr Tydfil home runs on a combi boiler or an unvented cylinder, we check your chosen shower valve suits it before fitting. Landlords with flats or houses in Merthyr Tydfil can supply their own standard suites and have them fitted between tenancies.

Most of Mid Glamorgan is supplied with soft water. That leaves you free to choose matt black, brushed brass or clear glass without worrying much about limescale. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Strip-out of the old suite and tiles, and removal of the waste
Fitting the suite, furniture, screen and accessories, then silicone, testing and a clean handover
First and second-fix plumbing: supplies, wastes, isolation valves and the connection to the soil stack
Unpacking and checking delivered items before day one, so damage or missing parts can go back to the seller early

Decisions to make first

Making good

Decide whether you want the quote to cover making good and decorating, or to stop at the tiles so you can paint yourself.

Who buys the materials

Adhesive, grout, boards, tanking, wastes and fixings can come from you or from us. The quote says which, so nothing is assumed.

Rules that apply in Wales

Wales uses the same water fittings regulations as England but has its own Part P with a wider notifiable list, so more of the electrical side of a refit needs notifying. A registered electrician handles this and gives you the certificate.

More about bathroom fitting

Bathroom fitting in Merthyr Tydfil: questions

How much should I budget for bathroom fitting in Merthyr Tydfil?

Bathroom fitting in Merthyr Tydfil usually costs £2,000–£5,600 including VAT. Expect the lower end for a like-for-like job with standard products, and the upper end if things move or you choose premium finishes. Your quote is itemised and fixed in writing once agreed.

Is the home survey in Merthyr Tydfil really free?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

Do you cover CF47 and CF48 in Merthyr Tydfil?

Yes. We cover all of Merthyr Tydfil, including CF47 and CF48, and nearby Aberdare, Rhondda and Ebbw Vale. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Merthyr Tydfil?

Should I buy my own bathroom suite or let the fitter supply it?

Buying your own gives you full choice and can save money in a sale, but you take on deliveries, checking every box and any returns. Supply and fit puts that on the fitter and gives you one price for everything. If you are unsure, ask for both options on the same quote. See fitted bathrooms for supply and fit.
