Working in Tonypandy

We cover every part of Tonypandy, including CF40, and nearby Rhondda (2.6 miles) and Pontypridd (5.1 miles).

In Tonypandy, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. For Tonypandy homes built before 2000, we ask about textured ceilings and old floor tiles before quoting a strip-out. If you are fitting your own bathroom in Tonypandy, a separate strip-out gets the heavy work and the waste dealt with first.

Most of Mid Glamorgan is supplied with soft water. Soft water is kind to grout, so mid-tone and darker grouts stay looking fresh. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Removal of the bath or shower tray, enclosure, basin, WC, furniture and accessories
Isolating the water and capping the supply to each fitting with a proper end, then checking for leaks
Lights, fan, shaver socket and heated rail disconnected and made safe by a qualified electrician where needed
Wall and floor tiles taken off with as little damage as possible to sound plaster

Decisions to make first

Salvage

If you want to keep a cast-iron bath, a radiator or a piece of furniture, say so before we start, so it comes out whole rather than in pieces.

Strip-out only or with prep

Strip-out only leaves walls and floors as found. With prep, walls are boarded or patched and the floor checked and overlaid, ready for fitting.

Rules that apply in Wales

In Wales, a strip-out is not building regulations work on its own. If the room is going back to brick ahead of structural or drainage changes, those parts go through building control under the Welsh regulations.

Is there asbestos in my bathroom?

If your home was built before 2000, there may be. The likely places are textured ceiling coatings, old floor tiles, cistern lids and boxing panels. You cannot tell by looking, so a sample test before strip-out is the safe way to find out. If asbestos is found, a specialist deals with it before the rest of the work goes ahead.
