Working in Hawarden
We cover every part of Hawarden, including CH5, and nearby Deeside (1.2 miles) and Buckley (2.7 miles).
Homes in and around Hawarden vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. Plumbing surveys in Hawarden include a look at the existing pipework for lead, corrosion or poor support before we quote. In Hawarden flats, any change to the WC or wastes is planned with the lease and the flat below in mind.
Supplies across most of Clwyd are moderately hard. Taps and wastes will need an occasional descale, and chrome or brushed finishes are easier to keep clean than polished brass. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Draining down and isolating supplies, with the rest of the house back on water as soon as possible
- Basin, bath and shower wastes sized and laid to a steady fall, with traps that hold their water seal
- The WC connected to the soil stack, or a new branch where the WC is moving
- Isolation valves on every fitting, so taps, cisterns and valves can be serviced without draining the system
Decisions to make first
Hard water
In hard water areas, a scale reducer or water softener protects valves, shower heads and glass. Keep an unsoftened tap in the kitchen for drinking.
Copper or plastic
Copper is rigid and suits pipes on show or near the boiler. Plastic is quicker under floors and inside walls, and long runs need fewer joints.
Rules that apply in Wales
Wales also uses the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999 and has its own Part H for drainage. The same rule on macerators applies: there must be a gravity-drained WC elsewhere in the home.
