Working in Rhosllannerchrugog

As well as Rhosllannerchrugog itself (LL14), we survey in Wrexham, Brymbo and Buckley.

In Rhosllannerchrugog, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If you are planning a wet room in Rhosllannerchrugog for level access, we design the fall and drain so the floor is flush from the doorway. In a compact Rhosllannerchrugog bathroom, a wet room frees the space a tray and enclosure would take, but expect the whole floor to get wet.

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 Rhosllannerchrugog. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Slip-resistant porcelain floor tiles and wall tiling
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
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.

Open or screened

A fully open shower with no glass only works in a larger room, with the basin, WC and towels well away from the spray.

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.

Is the water hard in Rhosllannerchrugog?

Who handles building control for a wet room in Rhosllannerchrugog?

Building control for Rhosllannerchrugog 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 Rhosllannerchrugog.

Can you have a wet room on a wooden floor?

Yes. On a timber floor, the former usually sits down between the joists so the finished floor stays level, and the joists may need trimming, strengthening or extra noggins. The floor must be stiff, often with a ply overlay, so it does not flex and crack the tiles or the tanking. We check the joists at the survey before quoting.
