Working in Colwyn Bay

We cover every part of Colwyn Bay, including LL28, LL29 and LL31, and nearby Llandudno (4.8 miles) and Rhyl (9.8 miles).

In Colwyn Bay, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If your Colwyn Bay home has one bathroom and a good-sized main bedroom, an en-suite is often the change that eases the morning queue. If the en-suite in your Colwyn Bay home was squeezed in by a previous owner, a refit is a chance to fix the door swing and the tray size.

Water across much of Clwyd is moderately hard. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Colwyn Bay. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

A short-projection or wall-hung WC and a compact basin chosen to keep the floor clear
IP-rated lighting, a shaver socket and the electrics done by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
A survey that traces the route from the en-suite to the soil stack and checks the fall the waste pipes would need
Stud walls with acoustic insulation and moisture-resistant board for a new en-suite

Decisions to make first

Night lighting

A mirror light or low-level LED strip on its own switch lets you use the en-suite at night without the full glare of the ceiling lights.

Refit or new en-suite

A refit keeps the existing drainage and walls. A new en-suite costs more because the walls, waste route, fan duct and electrics all start from nothing.

Rules that apply in Wales

Wales has its own Part F with similar extract rates and its own Part P, which makes more electrical work notifiable than in England. The drainage for a new en-suite falls under Part H. The work should be notified, and you should receive the certificates at the end.

Is the water hard in Colwyn Bay?

What extractor fan does an en-suite need?

In England, a new en-suite needs extract ventilation of at least 15 litres per second if the fan runs intermittently, or 8 litres per second if it runs continuously. Duct it to outside, keep the duct run short, and choose a quiet fan with an overrun timer, because it sits next to a bedroom.
