Working in Briton Ferry
We work right across Briton Ferry — SA7 and SA12 — and in neighbouring Neath and Clydach.
Homes in and around Briton Ferry vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If your Briton Ferry home is older and the bathroom still has original pipework or plaster behind the tiles, the survey shows whether a renovation or a refit makes more sense. If you have just bought a house in Briton Ferry, renovating the bathroom before moving in saves living through the dust.
Supplies across most of West Glamorgan are soft. 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
- Layout changes such as moved doors, new stud walls or boxing for concealed cisterns
- A survey of the structure and services: joists, walls, ceilings, pipework, wastes, wiring and ventilation
- Strip-out back to brick or studwork, with waste taken away by a licensed waste carrier
- Repairs to rotten floorboards, joists or other timber found once the room is open
Decisions to make first
Pipe material
Copper suits exposed runs and the area near the boiler. Plastic pipe is quicker under floors and inside walls, and long runs need fewer joints.
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.
