Which towns do we cover in County Londonderry?
Supplies across most of County Londonderry are soft. 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. If you are in Derry and short of storage, a tall unit at the end of the run holds what would otherwise sit on the floor.
What the job includes
- Fillers and end panels scribed to the walls, and the worktop sealed with silicone
- Basin, tap and waste connected, and the WC pan fixed and joined to the soil pipe
- Removal of the old basin, WC or cabinets, with redundant supplies capped
- Tall units fixed to the wall, doors adjusted and soft-close hinges set
- Supply of carcasses, doors, plinths, fillers and end panels in your chosen finish
- A worktop cut to length, with basin and tap cut-outs and sealed edges
Decisions to make first
Carcass board
Moisture-resistant board with sealed edges is the minimum. Some ranges use a PVC-based or similar carcass that copes better with splashes and leaks.
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.
Door style
Slab doors are the easiest to wipe down. Shaker doors look traditional but have grooves that collect dust. Handleless push-to-open doors suit a plain, modern room.
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.
Rules that apply in Northern Ireland
Fitted furniture itself is not controlled by building regulations, but what goes into it is. A new WC must meet the water fittings rules, with a maximum 6-litre flush and backflow protection. Illuminated mirrors, cabinet lights and shaver points must suit the bathroom zones under BS 7671, on circuits with 30 mA RCD protection, and apart from shaver supply units, sockets must be at least 3 m from the edge of zone 1.
In Northern Ireland, fitted furniture does not need building control approval. The Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2009 cover the WC and taps, and any wiring should follow BS 7671.
