Which towns do we cover in Herefordshire?
Water across much of Herefordshire is 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. For Hereford homeowners keeping their existing tiles, a furniture run can often go in over one to three days.
What the job includes
- Measuring every wall for length, height and how far it is out of square
- 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
- Removal of the old basin, WC or cabinets, with redundant supplies capped
- A concealed cistern or cistern frame, with an isolation valve you can reach through the flush plate or a panel
- Basin, tap and waste connected, and the WC pan fixed and joined to the soil pipe
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.
Unit depth
Slimline units are shallower and suit narrow rooms; standard-depth units hold more and give a wider worktop over the cistern.
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
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 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.
