Working in Hawarden

We work right across Hawarden — CH5 — and in neighbouring Deeside and Buckley.

Homes in and around Hawarden vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. We measure walk-in showers in Hawarden so the tray and panel are sized together, which is what keeps the spray in. If your Hawarden shower enclosure has a leaking door seal or a cracked tray, a walk-in panel removes the door altogether.

Water across much of Clwyd is moderately hard. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Hawarden. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Wall tiling, with an optional recessed niche
A thermostatic valve with a riser rail, a fixed head or both
An 8 mm or 10 mm toughened glass panel with a wall profile and support arm, or a frameless fixing
Removal of the old bath or enclosure and making good to the walls and floor

Decisions to make first

Tray length

Go long rather than wide. A 1400 to 1700 mm tray with a 900 to 1200 mm panel leaves a dry walkway; a 1200 mm tray works but gives less margin for spray.

Glass thickness

8 mm toughened glass is standard; 10 mm feels heavier and more solid. An easy-clean coating keeps limescale off clear glass in hard-water areas.

Rules that apply in Wales

In Wales, the Welsh Part P covers a wider list of electrical work than England, so changes to the lighting or a new electric shower circuit should be notified and certified.

Is the home survey in Hawarden really free?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

Do you cover CH5 in Hawarden?

Yes. We cover all of Hawarden, including CH5, and nearby Deeside, Buckley and Flint. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

How big does a walk-in shower need to be?

A walk-in shower with no door works well at 1400 mm long or more, with the glass panel covering most of that length. At 1200 by 800 mm it is still usable, but spray is more likely to escape the open end. A width of 800 to 900 mm is enough for most people.
