Working in Colchester
In Colchester we cover CO1, CO2, CO3 and 1 more postcode districts; we also cover Sudbury, 12.7 miles away, and Clacton-on-Sea.
Colchester is a big place with every kind of home, from terraces to flats to new builds, so we never price from a photo alone. If you are in Colchester and short of storage, a tall unit at the end of the run holds what would otherwise sit on the floor. For Colchester homeowners keeping their existing tiles, a furniture run can often go in over one to three days.
Most of Essex has very hard water. 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
- Tall units fixed to the wall, doors adjusted and soft-close hinges set
- A concealed cistern or cistern frame, with an isolation valve you can reach through the flush plate or a panel
- Measuring every wall for length, height and how far it is out of square
- Fillers and end panels scribed to the walls, and the worktop sealed with silicone
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.
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.
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.
