Working in Gorseinon

As well as Gorseinon itself (SA4), we survey in Llanelli, Swansea and Clydach.

Gorseinon gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. For an en-suite in Gorseinon, the first question at the survey is always where the waste can reach the soil stack. If your Gorseinon home has one bathroom and a good-sized main bedroom, an en-suite is often the change that eases the morning queue.

Water across much of West Glamorgan is soft. If that holds for your street in Gorseinon, limescale on shower glass and heads builds up slowly and a squeegee after use is usually enough. 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 door that suits a tight space: inward, outward, sliding or a pocket door
A shower tray or level-access former, an enclosure or walk-in panel, and a thermostatic valve

Decisions to make first

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.

Shower size

A 900 mm square tray is a comfortable minimum for an enclosure. In a long, narrow room, a 1200 by 800 mm walk-in tray with one glass panel feels far more generous.

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 Gorseinon?

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.
