Working in Ebbw Vale

As well as Ebbw Vale itself (NP23), we survey in Merthyr Tydfil, Blackwood and Gelligaer.

Homes in and around Ebbw Vale vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If your Ebbw Vale loft conversion has a bedroom but no bathroom, the survey starts with where the soil stack runs and how much headroom you have. If your Ebbw Vale house has a combi boiler, a loft shower can usually run on mains pressure without a pump.

Hardness differs from one part of Gwent to the next. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Ebbw Vale. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

A shower pump on a gravity system, an electric shower, or advice on moving to mains pressure, depending on your system
An extractor fan ducted through the roof or a gable wall, with the duct insulated through cold spaces
Fitted furniture made to the eaves, so the low space behind the slope becomes storage
Electrics by a qualified electrician, tested and certified, then tiling, testing and handover

Decisions to make first

Eaves storage

Low cupboards built into the slope behind the WC or basin take clutter out of the room and hide the pipework.

Where the shower goes

Under the ridge or in a dormer, where the full height is. A walk-in shower with a single panel is usually easier to fit to a roof line than a framed enclosure.

Rules that apply in Wales

Wales applies its own Part P, with a wider notifiable list than England, and its own Part F with similar extract rates. Part H covers the new drainage route down from the loft.

Loft bathrooms in Ebbw Vale: questions

How much does a loft bathroom cost in Ebbw Vale?

A loft bathroom in Ebbw Vale usually costs £6,000–£12,000 including VAT. Where you land in that range depends on the size of the room, whether the layout changes and the products you choose.

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

Do you cover NP23 in Ebbw Vale?

Yes. We cover all of Ebbw Vale, including NP23, and nearby Merthyr Tydfil, Blackwood and Gelligaer. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Ebbw Vale?

Is a bath too heavy for a loft floor?

A standard acrylic bath is usually fine on a loft floor built for a conversion, but a filled bath with someone in it is heavy, and stone-resin or cast-iron baths are much heavier still. We check the joist size, span and direction at the survey, and a heavy bath may need a structural check and strengthening first.
