Working in Kingswood

We work right across Kingswood — BS15, BS16 and GL12 — and in neighbouring Mangotsfield and Keynsham.

Homes in and around Kingswood vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If your Kingswood cloakroom still has a pedestal basin, a compact vanity unit adds storage without taking more floor. Landlords in Kingswood can have a worn basin replaced with a vanity unit in half a day to a day.

Most of Gloucestershire 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

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
A check that the wall can carry a wall-hung unit, with fixings to suit solid or stud walls
Testing for leaks and checking the trap holds its seal

Decisions to make first

Wall-hung or floor-standing

Wall-hung units leave the floor clear and are easy to clean under, but need a strong wall. Floor-standing units hold more and suit weak or uneven walls.

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 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.
