Working in Stockton-on-Tees
In Stockton-on-Tees we cover TS18, TS19 and TS20; we also cover Billingham, 1.8 miles away, and Thornaby-on-Tees.
Across a large town like Stockton-on-Tees, homes range from older terraces to newer estates; the survey tells us which pipework and floor we are dealing with. Wall-hung vanities in Stockton-on-Tees homes are fixed to suit what the wall is built from, which we check at the survey. If your Stockton-on-Tees cloakroom still has a pedestal basin, a compact vanity unit adds storage without taking more floor.
Most of County Durham has moderately hard water. 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
- A new tap, trap and the correct slotted or unslotted waste for the basin
- Removal of the old basin and pedestal, or old vanity, and taking it away
- A check that the wall can carry a wall-hung unit, with fixings to suit solid or stud walls
- Moving the waste and supply positions where the new unit needs them higher, lower or to one side
Decisions to make first
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.
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.
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.
