Covering Penarth
Penarth is about 3 miles south of Cardiff. We also cover Cardiff (3 miles to the north), Whitchurch and Barry.
Homes in South Glamorgan
Welsh homes include long terraces built into hillsides, stone cottages and modern estates, and sloping sites often shape how and where an extension can go.
What do you get with bathroom installation?
Bathroom installation covers stripping out the old suite, altering plumbing and wiring, waterproofing, tiling, and fitting the new bath, shower, toilet, basin and heated towel rail. We also build new en-suites and shower rooms in lofts and extensions.

Do you need permission for bathroom installation in Penarth?
Welsh projects need planning clearance from the council under Welsh rules, building regulations approval under the Welsh approved documents, and party wall notices where the work affects a neighbour’s wall or foundations.
Bathroom refits do not need planning permission; building regulations rules for electrics and ventilation apply.
What should Penarth homeowners check first?
- Low water pressure limits the choice of shower; a pump or unvented cylinder may be needed.
- Moving a toilet depends on the soil pipe route.
How does the project run?
- Send us the details. Give us a postcode, a rough idea of size and some photos, by phone, form or the guide price tool.
- We visit and measure. A surveyor checks the house, the boundaries and the ground, and discusses what is realistic.
- Price and paperwork. The design is priced line by line, and we submit the planning and building control applications.
- Build and hand over. Our teams build to the programme, building control inspects, and you get the completion paperwork at the end.
