Working in Hitchin
In Hitchin we cover SG6; we also cover Letchworth Garden City, 3.2 miles away, and Stevenage.
Homes in and around Hitchin vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. We measure Hitchin bathrooms wall by wall before ordering, so the run is made for your room. If your Hitchin bathroom has pipes running along the walls, a fitted run can box them in neatly while adding storage.
Most of Hertfordshire 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
- Measuring every wall for length, height and how far it is out of square
- Supply of carcasses, doors, plinths, fillers and end panels in your chosen finish
- A concealed cistern or cistern frame, with an isolation valve you can reach through the flush plate or a panel
Decisions to make first
Unit depth
Slimline units are shallower and suit narrow rooms; standard-depth units hold more and give a wider worktop over the cistern.
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.
