Working in Aberystwyth
We work right across Aberystwyth — SY23 — and in neighbouring Carmarthen and Ammanford.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Aberystwyth: free survey, written quote, one team. If the only toilet in your Aberystwyth home is upstairs, a cloakroom under the stairs or in the utility can save a lot of trips. For a new cloakroom in Aberystwyth, the first thing we look at is where the nearest drain or soil stack runs.
Water across much of Dyfed is soft. In soft water, taps, wastes and toilet pans scale up slowly, so brushed and matt finishes are a safe choice. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Lighting wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
- A new waste connection to the soil stack or drain, or a macerator where the rules allow it
- An extractor fan ducted to outside, wired with an overrun timer or linked to the light
- A concealed cistern frame or WC unit where the space allows
Decisions to make first
WC style
A wall-hung WC on a frame gives the most floor space and looks neat. A back-to-wall pan in a short furniture unit is easier to fit against an uneven wall.
Macerator or gravity
Gravity drainage is silent and needs no maintenance. A macerator lets a WC go where a pipe could not otherwise fall, provided another WC in the house is on gravity drainage.
Rules that apply in Wales
In Wales, Part H covers a new drainage connection and the Welsh Part F covers ventilation, with rates similar to England. The Welsh Part P has a wider notifiable list, so check with your electrician whether the cloakroom lighting and fan need to be notified.
