Working in Aberystwyth

We work right across Aberystwyth — SY23 — and in neighbouring Carmarthen and Ammanford.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Aberystwyth: free survey, written quote, one team. If you are converting a bathroom in Aberystwyth into a shower room, we price a tray and a tiled level floor side by side. For shower rooms in Aberystwyth, we check the water pressure and hot-water system at the survey, because that decides how well the shower will perform.

Supplies across most of Dyfed are soft. If that holds for your street in Aberystwyth, 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 thermostatic shower valve, exposed or concealed, with a fixed head, a handset or both
Extractor fan, lighting and towel rail wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
A low-profile tray or a tiled level floor, with the waste positioned for a good fall
A survey of water pressure and flow, the hot-water system and the floor where the tray or former will sit

Decisions to make first

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.

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.

Rules that apply in Wales

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

Will a shower room put buyers off?
