Working in Caernarfon

We cover every part of Caernarfon, including LL55, and nearby Bangor (8.3 miles) and Holyhead (18.8 miles).

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Caernarfon: free survey, written quote, one team. If nobody in your Caernarfon home has used the bath in a while, a shower room puts that space to better use. If your second bathroom in Caernarfon is too narrow for a bath, a long walk-in tray can often fit along the same wall.

Water across much of Gwynedd is soft. If that holds for your street in Caernarfon, 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
A low-profile tray or a tiled level floor, with the waste positioned for a good fall
A basin and WC to suit the space, freestanding or set into a fitted furniture run
Tanking to the shower area, then wall and floor tiling

Decisions to make first

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.

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.
