Working in Clydach
As well as Clydach itself (SA6, SA7 and SA8), we survey in Neath, Swansea and Briton Ferry.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Clydach: free survey, written quote, one team. For Clydach homes having the bathroom floor replaced, underfloor heating adds one to two days to the fit. If your Clydach bathroom has a cold tiled floor and no room for a bigger radiator, an electric mat under new tiles is the simplest answer.
Most of West 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
- The electric mat or cable laid to the open floor, kept clear of where the WC, bath and fixed furniture will sit
- A check of the floor construction, the room's heat loss and where the thermostat and supply will go
- For wet systems, pipes in low-profile boards or screed connected to a manifold or single-zone kit, with any boiler work done by a Gas Safe registered engineer
- Resistance and insulation tests on the mat before, during and after tiling, with the readings recorded
Decisions to make first
Insulation board thickness
Thicker boards warm up faster and lose less heat downwards, but raise the floor; the right choice depends on the door threshold and the next room.
Mat or loose cable
Mats are quickest on square, open floors. Loose cable is easier to route around awkward shapes, pipe boxing and a curved shower area.
Rules that apply in Wales
In Wales, the Welsh Part P also makes a new underfloor heating circuit notifiable, and it covers more bathroom electrical work than the English version. A registered electrician handles the notification.
