Working in Cardiff

In Cardiff we cover CF10, CF11 and CF24; we also cover Penarth, 2.9 miles away, and Caerphilly.

Cardiff is a big place with every kind of home, from terraces to flats to new builds, so we never price from a photo alone. If your Cardiff home has hard water, we talk through brassware and stone finishes that will still look good after a year of daily use. For a stone or cast-iron bath in a Cardiff property, we check the floor structure before anything is ordered.

Supplies across most of South Glamorgan are moderately hard. Easy-clean glass and good-quality brassware are money well spent. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Underfloor heating, layered lighting and any steam unit wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
A full snag check, sealing of stone where needed, and a handover of manuals and isolation points
Large-format porcelain, natural stone or microcement over full tanking
Bespoke fitted furniture, mitred tile edges and recessed niches

Decisions to make first

Wall and floor finish

Large-format porcelain gives a stone look with little upkeep. Natural stone and microcement are beautiful but need sealing and care, especially in hard-water areas.

Brassware finish

Chrome is the easiest to keep clean. Brushed brass, nickel and matt black look striking but show limescale marks unless they are wiped down.

Rules that apply in Wales

Wales has its own Part P with a wider notifiable list than England, so the new electrical work should be notified and certified. An unvented cylinder still needs a G3-qualified installer, and boiler work a Gas Safe registered engineer.

Luxury bathrooms in Cardiff: questions

What is the price of a luxury bathroom in Cardiff?

A luxury bathroom in Cardiff usually costs £11,250–£23,250 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 CF10 in Cardiff?

Yes. We cover all of Cardiff, including CF10, CF11 and CF24, and nearby Penarth, Caerphilly and Barry. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Cardiff?

Who handles building control for a luxury bathroom in Cardiff?

Building control for Cardiff 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.

Can my floor take a freestanding bath?

Most floors can take an acrylic freestanding bath, but stone-resin and cast-iron baths are far heavier, and the weight sits on a small area. We check the joist size, span and condition at the survey; strengthening a timber floor or spreading the load is sometimes needed, and it is planned before the bath is ordered.
