Working in Queensferry
We work right across Queensferry — EH30 — and in neighbouring Broxburn and Dunfermline.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Queensferry: free survey, written quote, one team. We quote vanity unit work in Queensferry after seeing the wall and pipework, so any re-tiling is on the quote from the start. If your Queensferry cloakroom still has a pedestal basin, a compact vanity unit adds storage without taking more floor.
Water across much of Edinburgh 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
- Isolation valves on the hot and cold supplies, so the tap can be changed later without draining the system
- Fitting the unit level, with the basin sealed to the top and the top sealed to the wall
- A new tap, trap and the correct slotted or unslotted waste for the basin
- Patching or re-tiling the wall where the old basin left gaps
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.
Basin type
An inset or semi-recessed basin, a one-piece moulded top, or a countertop basin on a worktop. Countertop basins need a tall tap or a wall-mounted one.
Rules that apply in Scotland
In Scotland, a replacement vanity unit does not need a building warrant. The Scottish Water Byelaws 2014 cover the new tap and supplies.
