Working in Newtown

We work right across Newtown — SY16 — and in neighbouring Welshpool and Brecon.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Newtown: free survey, written quote, one team. We survey in Newtown before quoting, so the furniture run is planned around your actual walls, window and soil stack. Fitted furniture suits the many Newtown bathrooms that have to hold towels, toiletries and cleaning things for a whole household.

Water across much of Powys is 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

Boarding, tanking in the wet areas, wall and floor tiling
First and second-fix plumbing, including concealed cistern frames and new isolation valves
A free home survey with measurements, photos and a check of your water pressure, drainage and ventilation
Strip-out of the old bathroom and removal of the waste

Decisions to make first

Wall-hung or floor-standing

Wall-hung units show more floor and look lighter; floor-standing units give more storage and suit uneven walls.

Bath, shower or both

Keep a bath for children or soaking, swap it for a walk-in shower if no one uses it, or plan both if the room is big enough.

Rules that apply in Wales

Wales has its own version of Part P, and more bathroom electrical work is notifiable there than in England. Use a registered electrician who will notify the work and give you a certificate.

Fitted bathrooms in Newtown: questions

What is the price of a fitted bathroom in Newtown?

A fitted bathroom in Newtown usually costs £6,000–£11,250 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 SY16 in Newtown?

Is the water hard in Newtown?

Who handles building control for a fitted bathroom in Newtown?

Building control for Newtown 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 fitted bathroom and a normal bathroom?

In a fitted bathroom the basin, WC and storage are built into one continuous run of furniture, with the cistern and pipes hidden behind panels and a worktop across the top. A standard bathroom uses separate pieces, such as a pedestal basin and close-coupled toilet, which leave gaps and visible pipework.
