Working in Gravesend
We cover every part of Gravesend, including DA11 and DA12, and nearby Swanscombe (2.6 miles) and Grays (3 miles).
In Gravesend, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. Rented homes in Gravesend are well served by slab doors and sealed worktops, which stand up to a change of tenants. If you are in Gravesend and short of storage, a tall unit at the end of the run holds what would otherwise sit on the floor.
Water across much of Kent is very hard. 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
- Measuring every wall for length, height and how far it is out of square
- Basin, tap and waste connected, and the WC pan fixed and joined to the soil pipe
- A worktop cut to length, with basin and tap cut-outs and sealed edges
- A concealed cistern or cistern frame, with an isolation valve you can reach through the flush plate or a panel
Decisions to make first
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.
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.
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.
