Working in Wishaw
In Wishaw we cover ML2; we also cover Larkhall, 3 miles away, and Motherwell.
In Wishaw, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If your Wishaw bathroom has pipes running along the walls, a fitted run can box them in neatly while adding storage. If your Wishaw home has uneven walls, fillers and end panels are scribed to them on site rather than left with gaps.
Supplies across most of Lanarkshire are soft. 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
- Removal of the old basin, WC or cabinets, with redundant supplies capped
- A worktop cut to length, with basin and tap cut-outs and sealed edges
- 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
Lighting in the run
Plinth lights and an illuminated mirror cabinet must be planned at first fix, because the cables run inside the furniture and need RCD protection.
Door style
Slab doors are the easiest to wipe down. Shaker doors look traditional but have grooves that collect dust. Handleless push-to-open doors suit a plain, modern room.
Rules that apply in Scotland
In Scotland, fitting furniture in an existing bathroom does not need a building warrant. New WCs and taps must meet the Scottish Water Byelaws 2014, and any wiring for lit units is tested and certified to BS 7671.
