Working in Crowborough

As well as Crowborough itself (TN6), we survey in Tunbridge Wells, Uckfield and East Grinstead.

Crowborough gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. We quote vanity unit work in Crowborough after seeing the wall and pipework, so any re-tiling is on the quote from the start. If your Crowborough cloakroom still has a pedestal basin, a compact vanity unit adds storage without taking more floor.

Most of East Sussex has hard water. Taps, plug wastes and toilet pans scale up quickly, so chrome copes better than matt black, and a removable aerator is worth having. 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
A check that the wall can carry a wall-hung unit, with fixings to suit solid or stud walls
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

Decisions to make first

Drawers or doors

Drawers keep things visible and reachable but lose some space to the trap. Doors give a deeper cupboard and cost less.

Waste and overflow

A basin with an overflow takes a slotted waste; one without needs an unslotted waste, often a push-button 'click-clack' type.

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.

More about vanity units

Vanity units in Crowborough: questions

How much should I budget for a new vanity unit in Crowborough?

A new vanity unit in Crowborough usually costs £400–£1,700 including VAT. Where you land in that range depends on the size of the room, whether the layout changes and the products you choose. After the free survey you get an itemised written quote, and the price is fixed in writing once the layout and products are agreed.

Is the home survey in Crowborough really free?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

Do you cover TN6 in Crowborough?

Yes. We cover all of Crowborough, including TN6, and nearby Tunbridge Wells, Uckfield and East Grinstead. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Crowborough?

Is a wall-hung or floor-standing vanity unit better?

Neither suits every room. Wall-hung units show more floor, make a small bathroom feel larger and are easy to clean under, but need a wall that can carry them. Floor-standing units hold more and suit uneven or weak walls.
