Working in Deeside

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

In Deeside, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If your Deeside bathroom is upstairs on timber joists, we check their size and direction before planning the wet room floor. For a wet room in a Deeside flat, the first step is the lease, because freeholder consent is often needed before any work starts.

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

What the job includes

A frameless glass screen fixed to the wall and floor
A thermostatic shower valve, exposed or concealed, with heads to suit your water system
A pre-formed floor former with a linear or centre drain, or a screed laid to fall
Extractor fan and lighting by a qualified electrician, tested and certified, with underfloor heating if you choose it

Decisions to make first

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

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.

Wet rooms in Deeside: questions

What is the price of a wet room in Deeside?

Is the water hard in Deeside?

Who handles building control for a wet room in Deeside?

Building control for Deeside is handled by the local council or an approved inspector. If your job needs sign-off — for example a new circuit, new drainage or a new extractor where there was none — we tell you at the survey and handle the notification as part of the work.

How long does a wet room take?

Allow 5–10 working days on site for most jobs, plus the lead time for products after you approve the quote. We give you a day-by-day plan before work starts in Deeside.

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.
