Working in Newburn
We cover every part of Newburn, including NE5 and NE15, and nearby Blaydon-on-Tyne (2 miles) and Whickham (4 miles).
In Newburn, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If you are in Newburn and short of storage, a tall unit at the end of the run holds what would otherwise sit on the floor. For Newburn homeowners keeping their existing tiles, a furniture run can often go in over one to three days.
Most of Tyne and Wear is supplied with soft water. 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
- Fillers and end panels scribed to the walls, and the worktop sealed with silicone
- 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
- Supply of carcasses, doors, plinths, fillers and end panels in your chosen finish
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.
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.
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.
