Working in Gorseinon

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

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Gorseinon: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Gorseinon house has a combi boiler, a loft shower can usually run on mains pressure without a pump. If your Gorseinon home has a gravity-drained WC on another floor, a macerator in the loft may open up more layout options.

Most of West Glamorgan is supplied with soft water. 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 survey of the headroom across the room, with the usable height marked at each fitting position
Fitted furniture made to the eaves, so the low space behind the slope becomes storage
A check of the floor joists where a bath or large shower tray will sit
A shower pump on a gravity system, an electric shower, or advice on moving to mains pressure, depending on your system

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.

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 Gorseinon: questions

How much should I budget for a loft bathroom in Gorseinon?

Do you cover SA4 in Gorseinon?

Yes. We cover all of Gorseinon, including SA4, and nearby Llanelli, Swansea and Clydach. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Gorseinon?

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.
