Working in Maesteg

As well as Maesteg itself (CF34), we survey in Briton Ferry, Neath and Bridgend.

Maesteg gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If your Maesteg house has a combi boiler, a loft shower can usually run on mains pressure without a pump. For a loft bathroom in a tank-fed Maesteg home, we work out how the shower will get its pressure before choosing a single fitting.

Most of Mid Glamorgan is supplied with soft water. If that holds for your street in Maesteg, 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 check of your hot-water system and of the pressure and flow you actually get at loft level
A shower pump on a gravity system, an electric shower, or advice on moving to mains pressure, depending on your system
Electrics by a qualified electrician, tested and certified, then tiling, testing and handover
An extractor fan ducted through the roof or a gable wall, with the duct insulated through cold spaces

Decisions to make first

Roof window

A roof window over the bath or shower brings daylight and fresh air, but plan the blind for privacy and expect condensation on cold glass.

Gravity or pumped waste

Gravity is silent and maintenance-free. A pumped waste or macerator lets fittings sit away from the stack, provided the house has a WC on gravity drainage elsewhere.

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 Maesteg: questions

What is the price of a loft bathroom in Maesteg?

A loft bathroom in Maesteg usually costs £6,000–£12,000 including VAT. The final figure comes down to what you choose and what we find at the survey; your written quote lists every item so you can see where the money goes.

Is the home survey in Maesteg really free?

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 CF34 in Maesteg?

Yes. We cover all of Maesteg, including CF34, and nearby Briton Ferry, Neath and Bridgend. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Do I need a pump for a loft shower?

You need a pump if your hot water comes from a cylinder fed by a cold tank, because the tank usually sits at or below the height of a loft shower and gives almost no pressure. A combi boiler or unvented cylinder supplies mains pressure, so no pump is needed, though the flow can drop when other taps run. Shower pumps must only be used on gravity systems, never connected to the mains.
