Working in Llantwit Major

We cover every part of Llantwit Major, including CF61, and nearby Bridgend (7.6 miles) and Barry (8.8 miles).

Llantwit Major gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. For shower rooms in Llantwit Major, we check the water pressure and hot-water system at the survey, because that decides how well the shower will perform. If your second bathroom in Llantwit Major is too narrow for a bath, a long walk-in tray can often fit along the same wall.

Supplies across most of South Glamorgan are moderately hard. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Llantwit Major. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

An enclosure, walk-in panel or frameless screen in toughened safety glass
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.

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.

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.

Is the water hard in Llantwit Major?

What shower suits my water system?

It depends on your hot water. A combi boiler or unvented cylinder supplies mains pressure to a thermostatic mixer. A tank-fed system may need a pump, which must only be used on gravity systems. An electric shower heats cold mains water and suits a home without much stored hot water. See choosing a shower.
