Working in Consett
In Consett we cover DH8; we also cover Stanley, 5.4 miles away, and Whickham.
In Consett, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. We measure Consett bathrooms wall by wall before ordering, so the run is made for your room. For Consett homeowners keeping their existing tiles, a furniture run can often go in over one to three days.
Supplies across most of County Durham are moderately hard. Taps and wastes will need an occasional descale, and chrome or brushed finishes are easier to keep clean than polished brass. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Basin, tap and waste connected, and the WC pan fixed and joined to the soil pipe
- Fillers and end panels scribed to the walls, and the worktop sealed with silicone
- A concealed cistern or cistern frame, with an isolation valve you can reach through the flush plate or a panel
- Removal of the old basin, WC or cabinets, with redundant supplies capped
Decisions to make first
Tall storage
A tall unit at the end of the run takes towels and cleaning products off the floor. Check it clears the door, window and towel rail.
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.
