Housing across Clwyd
Wrexham has Victorian terraces in red Ruabon brick, alongside interwar and post-war estates. The north coast resorts of Rhyl, Prestatyn and Colwyn Bay have Victorian villas, guest-house terraces and bungalows, while Denbighshire and Flintshire villages use local stone under Welsh slate roofs.
Terraces suit loft conversions and rear extensions, and many need repointing and roof work. Coastal bungalows commonly take loft rooms and window renewal, and stone cottages need lime-based repairs.
The north Wales coast is exposed to wind and salt from the Irish Sea, and the Clwydian hills inland are wetter and colder.

From survey to handover
Survey and measure
It starts with a survey at the property, free of charge. We check condition, access and services, ask how you want the finished result to look, and answer any questions you have about a new bathroom.
Written quote
We turn the survey notes into a written quote. The price is fixed for the specification we agree, and the document sets out materials, scope and payment stages in plain language.
Booking the work
Before anyone starts, we confirm the programme in writing, check whether consents are required and arrange deliveries. If a skip or scaffolding on the road needs a permit, we apply for it.
Finish and handover
On site, the agreed plan is followed and any change is put in writing first. At completion we do a final clean, go through the snagging list with you and leave you with the relevant documents.
How we work
Questions about a new bathroom in Clwyd
Is a wet room right for my home?
A wet room is a fully waterproofed room with a shower area that drains through the floor, with no tray or step. It suits accessible bathrooms and modern designs, and makes cleaning easy. It needs a floor with enough depth for a gentle fall to the drain, and careful tanking of the whole room. Timber floors often need strengthening. We check suitability at the survey.
What happens at the survey?
We visit your home at a time that suits you, look at the area involved, take measurements and check access, condition and any services that might be affected. We talk through what you want from a new bathroom, explain the options and answer questions. There is no charge and no obligation; afterwards we send a written quote.
What ventilation does a bathroom need?
A bathroom needs mechanical ventilation, usually an extractor fan, to remove steam and help prevent condensation and mould. Building regulations set minimum extraction rates for new or refitted bathrooms. A fan linked to the light with an overrun timer, or one with a humidity sensor, works well. Ducting should vent outside by the shortest practical route. We include a suitable fan in every bathroom quote.
Who do I deal with during the job?
One point of contact manages your project from survey to handover. They schedule the trades working under our contract, keep you updated on progress, and are the person to call with any question. You don't need to coordinate builders, electricians or decorators separately, because that is part of what we do.
How long does it take to fit a bathroom?
Fitting a typical bathroom takes one to two weeks on site. Strip-out and first-fix plumbing and electrics come first, followed by any plastering or boarding, waterproofing, tiling and then the suite, taps and fittings. Wet rooms and rooms with underfloor heating take longer because screeds and waterproofing need time to cure. We give you a day-by-day plan before work starts.
