Working in Kendal
We cover every part of Kendal, including LA8 and LA9, and nearby Morecambe (18.4 miles) and Lancaster (19.5 miles).
In Kendal, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. Rented homes in Kendal are well served by slab doors and sealed worktops, which stand up to a change of tenants. For Kendal homeowners keeping their existing tiles, a furniture run can often go in over one to three days.
Most of Cumbria 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
- Supply of carcasses, doors, plinths, fillers and end panels in your chosen finish
- 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
- Measuring every wall for length, height and how far it is out of square
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.
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.
