Which towns do we cover in Oxfordshire?
Supplies across most of Oxfordshire are 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. If you are in Oxford and short of storage, a tall unit at the end of the run holds what would otherwise sit on the floor.
What the job includes
- Basin, tap and waste connected, and the WC pan fixed and joined to the soil pipe
- Fillers and end panels scribed to the walls, and the worktop sealed with silicone
- A concealed cistern or cistern frame, with an isolation valve you can reach through the flush plate or a panel
- Supply of carcasses, doors, plinths, fillers and end panels in your chosen finish
- Measuring every wall for length, height and how far it is out of square
- Removal of the old basin, WC or cabinets, with redundant supplies capped
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.
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.
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.
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 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.
