Working in Dunfermline
We cover every part of Dunfermline, including KY12, and nearby Queensferry (6 miles) and Broxburn (9.5 miles).
Dunfermline is a big place with every kind of home, from terraces to flats to new builds, so we never price from a photo alone. For a new cloakroom in Dunfermline, the first thing we look at is where the nearest drain or soil stack runs. If you are refreshing a dated cloakroom in Dunfermline, a wall-hung WC and slim vanity can change the room in a few days.
Most of Fife is supplied with soft water. In soft water, taps, wastes and toilet pans scale up slowly, so brushed and matt finishes are a safe choice. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- A concealed cistern frame or WC unit where the space allows
- An extractor fan ducted to outside, wired with an overrun timer or linked to the light
- Lighting wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
- Strip-out of the old fittings, waste removal and making good on the hall side
Decisions to make first
Basin
A corner basin fits the tightest rooms. A slim vanity basin with a cupboard underneath gives somewhere to keep spare toilet rolls and soap, and hides the trap.
WC style
A wall-hung WC on a frame gives the most floor space and looks neat. A back-to-wall pan in a short furniture unit is easier to fit against an uneven wall.
Rules that apply in Scotland
In Scotland, forming a new WC that alters drainage may need a building warrant, while refitting an existing cloakroom normally does not. Water fittings are covered by the Scottish Water Byelaws 2014, and electrics should be tested and certified to BS 7671.
