Working in Penzance
In Penzance we cover TR18; we also cover Camborne, 12.5 miles away, and Redruth.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Penzance: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Penzance cloakroom still has a pedestal basin, a compact vanity unit adds storage without taking more floor. We quote vanity unit work in Penzance after seeing the wall and pipework, so any re-tiling is on the quote from the start.
Water across much of Cornwall is 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
- A new tap, trap and the correct slotted or unslotted waste for the basin
- Isolation valves on the hot and cold supplies, so the tap can be changed later without draining the system
- Patching or re-tiling the wall where the old basin left gaps
- Fitting the unit level, with the basin sealed to the top and the top sealed to the wall
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.
Drawers or doors
Drawers keep things visible and reachable but lose some space to the trap. Doors give a deeper cupboard and cost less.
Rules that apply in England
In England, the tap and supply pipework come under the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999. A new waste connection to the soil stack can be Part H work, and adding a light to the unit or above it is notifiable under Part P.
