Working in Plymstock
We cover every part of Plymstock, including PL9, and nearby Plymouth (2.4 miles) and Saltash (6.9 miles).
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Plymstock: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Plymstock water is hard, a tap with a removable aerator and a smooth one-piece basin top are easier to keep clean. We quote vanity unit work in Plymstock after seeing the wall and pipework, so any re-tiling is on the quote from the start.
Most of Devon 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
- Removal of the old basin and pedestal, or old vanity, and taking it away
- 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
- Testing for leaks and checking the trap holds its seal
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 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.
