Working in Llantwit Major

We work right across Llantwit Major — CF61 — and in neighbouring Bridgend and Barry.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Llantwit Major: free survey, written quote, one team. Wall-hung vanities in Llantwit Major homes are fixed to suit what the wall is built from, which we check at the survey. If your Llantwit Major water is hard, a tap with a removable aerator and a smooth one-piece basin top are easier to keep clean.

Most of South Glamorgan has moderately hard water. Taps and wastes will need an occasional descale, and chrome or brushed finishes are easier to keep clean than polished brass. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Isolation valves on the hot and cold supplies, so the tap can be changed later without draining the system
Removal of the old basin and pedestal, or old vanity, and taking it away
Moving the waste and supply positions where the new unit needs them higher, lower or to one side
A check that the wall can carry a wall-hung unit, with fixings to suit solid or stud walls

Decisions to make first

Basin type

An inset or semi-recessed basin, a one-piece moulded top, or a countertop basin on a worktop. Countertop basins need a tall tap or a wall-mounted one.

Drawers or doors

Drawers keep things visible and reachable but lose some space to the trap. Doors give a deeper cupboard and cost less.

Rules that apply in Wales

Wales follows the same water fittings regulations as England. Its own Part P covers more electrical work, so a lit vanity or mirror should be connected by a registered electrician.
