Working in Thatcham
As well as Thatcham itself (RG19), we survey in Newbury, Tadley and Basingstoke.
In Thatcham, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. Rented homes in Thatcham are well served by slab doors and sealed worktops, which stand up to a change of tenants. For Thatcham homeowners keeping their existing tiles, a furniture run can often go in over one to three days.
Water across much of Berkshire is hard. Taps, plug wastes and toilet pans scale up quickly, so chrome copes better than matt black, and a removable aerator is worth having. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- A worktop cut to length, with basin and tap cut-outs and sealed edges
- Basin, tap and waste connected, and the WC pan fixed and joined to the soil pipe
- Supply of carcasses, doors, plinths, fillers and end panels in your chosen finish
- Tall units fixed to the wall, doors adjusted and soft-close hinges set
Decisions to make first
Lighting in the run
Plinth lights and an illuminated mirror cabinet must be planned at first fix, because the cables run inside the furniture and need RCD protection.
Cistern type
A back-to-wall pan can use a cistern that sits inside the WC unit, which is simple to service. A wall-hung WC needs a load-bearing frame built in behind the run.
Rules that apply in England
In England, wiring a lit mirror or plinth lights means altering a circuit in a room with a bath or shower, which is notifiable under Part P. The Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999 cover the new WC and basin taps.
