Working in Wrexham

As well as Wrexham itself (LL11, LL12 and LL13), we survey in Brymbo, Rhosllannerchrugog and Buckley.

Wrexham is a big place with every kind of home, from terraces to flats to new builds, so we never price from a photo alone. If you have just bought a house in Wrexham, renovating the bathroom before moving in saves living through the dust. A renovation survey in Wrexham looks behind the surfaces, at joists, pipework and wiring, before any figure is put on paper.

Most of Clwyd has moderately hard water. 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

Layout changes such as moved doors, new stud walls or boxing for concealed cisterns
Re-plastering or boarding, with cement-based boards and tanking in the wet areas
New wiring, lighting, extractor fan and RCD protection, installed and certified by a qualified electrician
New hot and cold pipework and wastes, with isolation valves to each fitting

Decisions to make first

How far back to strip

Back to brick gives a clean start. Keeping sound plaster on some walls saves time and money, and the survey shows which walls can stay.

Heating

Moving the radiator, adding a heated towel rail or laying underfloor heating is simpler while the room is stripped.

Rules that apply in Wales

Wales applies its own building regulations, including a wider Part P and its own Parts F and H. Structural and drainage changes go through building control in much the same way as in England.

More about bathroom renovation

Bathroom renovation in Wrexham: questions

What is the price of a bathroom renovation in Wrexham?

A bathroom renovation in Wrexham usually costs £7,000–£14,000 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.

Do you cover LL11 in Wrexham?

Yes. We cover all of Wrexham, including LL11, LL12 and LL13, and nearby Brymbo, Rhosllannerchrugog and Buckley. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Wrexham?

Who handles building control for a bathroom renovation in Wrexham?

Building control for Wrexham 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.

What is the difference between a bathroom refit and a renovation?

A refit replaces the visible parts, the suite, tiles and floor, and keeps the pipework, wiring and walls behind them. A renovation strips the room to its structure and replaces those hidden services too, often with a new layout. It costs more and takes longer, but it deals with problems a refit would only cover up.
