Working in Cardiff

We work right across Cardiff — CF10, CF11 and CF24 — and in neighbouring Penarth and Caerphilly.

In a city the size of Cardiff, parking and access for a skip are worth sorting before the start date — we will ask at the survey. If your Cardiff home runs on a combi boiler or an unvented cylinder, we check your chosen shower valve suits it before fitting. If you have bought a suite and need it fitted in Cardiff, we check the product list before booking so the job is not held up by a missing part.

Supplies across most of South Glamorgan are moderately hard. Easy-clean glass and good-quality brassware are money well spent. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Unpacking and checking delivered items before day one, so damage or missing parts can go back to the seller early
Boarding, tanking in the shower area and tiling labour, with tiles and adhesive from you or sourced by us
Electrical work by a qualified electrician where lights, a fan or a shaver socket are changing
First and second-fix plumbing: supplies, wastes, isolation valves and the connection to the soil stack

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.

Fit-only or supply and fit

Fit-only lets you choose and buy every product yourself; supply and fit puts sourcing, deliveries and returns on us, with one price for everything.

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 Cardiff: questions

How much should I budget for bathroom fitting in Cardiff?

Bathroom fitting in Cardiff usually costs £2,000–£5,600 including VAT. The final figure comes down to what you choose and what we find at the survey; your written quote lists every item so you can see where the money goes.

Do you cover CF10 in Cardiff?

Yes. We cover all of Cardiff, including CF10, CF11 and CF24, and nearby Penarth, Caerphilly and Barry. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Cardiff?

Who handles building control for bathroom fitting in Cardiff?

Building control for Cardiff is handled by the local council or an approved inspector. If your job needs sign-off — for example a new circuit, new drainage or a new extractor where there was none — we tell you at the survey and handle the notification as part of the work.

Will you fit a bathroom suite I bought online?

Yes. Send us the product list or links before the survey, and we will check sizes, wastes, valves and the cistern type against your room and plumbing. Missing or mismatched parts cause most fit-only delays, and they are far easier to sort before the start date than halfway through.
