Supplies across the West Midlands range from soft to hard depending on the source. Taps and wastes will need an occasional descale, and chrome or brushed finishes are easier to keep clean than polished brass. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier. We measure Birmingham bathrooms wall by wall before ordering, so the run is made for your room.

What the job includes

• Measuring every wall for length, height and how far it is out of square
• Fillers and end panels scribed to the walls, and the worktop sealed with silicone
• 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
• Supply of carcasses, doors, plinths, fillers and end panels in your chosen finish
• Basin, tap and waste connected, and the WC pan fixed and joined to the soil pipe

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.

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.

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.
