Working in Deeside
We cover every part of Deeside, including CH5, and nearby Hawarden (1.2 miles) and Buckley (3 miles).
In Deeside, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If your Deeside water is hard, a tap with a removable aerator and a smooth one-piece basin top are easier to keep clean. Landlords in Deeside can have a worn basin replaced with a vanity unit in half a day to a day.
Supplies across most of Clwyd are moderately hard. 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.
What the job includes
- Isolation valves on the hot and cold supplies, so the tap can be changed later without draining the system
- A check that the wall can carry a wall-hung unit, with fixings to suit solid or stud walls
- Testing for leaks and checking the trap holds its seal
- A new tap, trap and the correct slotted or unslotted waste for the basin
Decisions to make first
One basin or two
Two basins help a busy household if the wall is long enough. In a smaller room, one basin with a longer top often works better.
Width
Compact units around 400 mm wide suit cloakrooms; family bathrooms often take 600 to 800 mm for one basin and 1200 mm or more for two.
Rules that apply in Wales
Wales follows the same water fittings regulations as England. Its own Part P covers more electrical work, so a lit vanity or mirror should be connected by a registered electrician.
