Working in Tonypandy
In Tonypandy we cover CF40; we also cover Rhondda, 2.6 miles away, and Pontypridd.
In Tonypandy, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. Where a Tonypandy shower room doubles as the guest bathroom, we plan storage so it stays clear of clutter. If nobody in your Tonypandy home has used the bath in a while, a shower room puts that space to better use.
Most of Mid Glamorgan is supplied with soft water. If that holds for your street in Tonypandy, 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 basin and WC to suit the space, freestanding or set into a fitted furniture run
- A thermostatic shower valve, exposed or concealed, with a fixed head, a handset or both
- A survey of water pressure and flow, the hot-water system and the floor where the tray or former will sit
- Removal of the old bath and suite, waste removal, testing and handover
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.
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.
