Working in Merthyr Tydfil
We cover every part of Merthyr Tydfil, including CF47 and CF48, and nearby Aberdare (3.8 miles) and Rhondda (6.9 miles).
Homes in and around Merthyr Tydfil vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. For a small Merthyr Tydfil bathroom with no window, a quiet extractor fan on an overrun timer does more for the room than any tile choice. We measure small bathrooms in Merthyr Tydfil to the centimetre before quoting, because 50 mm can decide whether a larger tray fits.
Most of Mid Glamorgan is supplied with soft water. That leaves you free to choose matt black, brushed brass or clear glass without worrying much about limescale. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Strip-out, waste removal, testing and a clean handover
- Shorter, narrower or shower baths where a full 1700 mm bath does not sit well
- Recessed niches, mirror cabinets and wall-hung vanity units to get storage off the floor
- Lighting, extractor fan and towel rail wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
Decisions to make first
Door
Re-hanging the door to open outwards, or fitting a sliding door, frees the space behind it. In a very small room this alone can make space for a bigger shower.
WC type
A short-projection close-coupled WC sits closer to the wall than a standard pan. A wall-hung WC on a concealed frame shows the floor beneath it and is easier to clean around.
Rules that apply in Wales
Wales has its own Part P, with a wider list of notifiable work than England, and its own Part F with similar extract rates. Expect the electrical work to be notified and certified.
