Which towns do we cover in Clwyd?

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 Wrexham. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier. If you are planning a wet room in Wrexham for level access, we design the fall and drain so the floor is flush from the doorway.

What the job includes

A frameless glass screen fixed to the wall and floor
Extractor fan and lighting by a qualified electrician, tested and certified, with underfloor heating if you choose it
Slip-resistant porcelain floor tiles and wall tiling
A thermostatic shower valve, exposed or concealed, with heads to suit your water system
Full tanking of the floor and the shower walls, with sealed corners, pipe collars and a sealed drain connection
Floor strengthening or a ply overlay on timber floors so the surface does not flex

Decisions to make first

Screen size

A screen of 1200 mm or more keeps spray off the rest of the room in most layouts. In a very small wet room, expect the whole floor to get wet.

Underfloor heating

Electric underfloor heating under the tiles dries the floor quickly after a shower; it is typically £700 to £1,500 for a bathroom.

Floor tile

Matt or textured porcelain with good slip resistance. Mosaic gives extra grip on a centre-drain floor because of its many grout lines.

Former or screed

A pre-formed board gives a consistent fall and suits timber floors. A sand and cement screed suits concrete slabs and larger shower areas.

Rules that apply in Wales

A wet room inside an existing home does not need planning permission. In a flat, check the lease: freeholder consent is often needed, and both the leak risk and the sound insulation to the flat below matter. Electrics must meet BS 7671, with 30 mA RCD protection, at least IPX4 fittings in zone 1 up to 2.25 m above the shower floor, IPX5 where water jets are used, and no ordinary sockets within 3 m of zone 1.

In Wales, Part H covers new drainage and the Welsh Part F sets similar extract rates. The Welsh Part P makes more electrical work notifiable than in England, so the electrician should notify and certify the work.

Is the water hard in Clwyd?

Can I have a wet room in a flat?

Often, but check your lease first. Freeholder consent is commonly needed, especially where the drainage or the floor changes, and the risk of a leak into the flat below means the tanking and drain connection must be done with care. Sound insulation in the floor matters too.
