A shared bathroom refit replaces worn or failing bathrooms in an HMO with hard-wearing, easy-clean ones: good extraction, waterproofing, thermostatic showers and finishes that stand up to several users a day. Landlords in Barry (CF62 and CF63) usually come to us with a council letter, a fire risk assessment or a house they have just bought. We price from whichever you have.
