Which towns do we cover in Clwyd?

Most of Clwyd has moderately hard water. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Wrexham. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier. We plan shower rooms in Wrexham around the waste route first, so the tray has a good fall and drains quickly.

What the job includes

A basin and WC to suit the space, freestanding or set into a fitted furniture run
A low-profile tray or a tiled level floor, with the waste positioned for a good fall
Tanking to the shower area, then wall and floor tiling
Recessed niches or shelving in the shower wall
An enclosure, walk-in panel or frameless screen in toughened safety glass
A thermostatic shower valve, exposed or concealed, with a fixed head, a handset or both

Decisions to make first

Tray or level floor

A low-profile stone-resin tray is quicker to fit and costs less. A tiled level floor looks seamless but needs a former, tanking and more floor preparation.

Drain

A centre waste in a tray is the norm. A linear drain along one wall lets a tiled floor fall one way, so large tiles can run through.

Glass

8 mm toughened glass is the usual standard for a walk-in panel. An easy-clean coating helps a great deal in hard-water areas.

Valve and heads

A bar valve is simple and easy to service. A concealed valve with a ceiling head looks cleaner but needs good flow to perform.

Rules that apply in Wales

Turning a bathroom into a shower room does not need planning permission. The electrics must meet BS 7671: 30 mA RCD protection on every circuit, at least IPX4 fittings in zone 1 above the tray up to 2.25 m, or IPX5 where water jets are used, and no ordinary sockets within 3 m of zone 1. A shower pump can only be used on a gravity system with a cold tank, never connected directly to the mains.

Wales has its own Part P and Part F. More electrical work is notifiable there than in England, and the extract rates are similar.

Is the water hard in Clwyd?

What is the difference between a shower room and a wet room?

A shower room has a tray, or a shower area with its own screen, and only the shower area is waterproofed. A wet room has a fully tanked floor laid to fall to a drain, so the whole room can get wet. A shower room usually costs less and is quicker to fit. Our guide to wet rooms and walk-in showers compares them.
