Working in Camden Town

We work right across Camden Town — EC1N, NW1, NW3 and 14 more postcode districts — and in neighbouring Holloway and Islington.

In Camden Town, many bathrooms are in flats or converted houses, so we check lease consents, access and the floor below before we price. Landlords in Camden Town can have a worn basin replaced with a vanity unit in half a day to a day. If your Camden Town cloakroom still has a pedestal basin, a compact vanity unit adds storage without taking more floor.

Supplies across most of Greater London are very hard. 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

A new tap, trap and the correct slotted or unslotted waste for the basin
Testing for leaks and checking the trap holds its seal
Moving the waste and supply positions where the new unit needs them higher, lower or to one side
Removal of the old basin and pedestal, or old vanity, and taking it away

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.

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.

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.

Who handles building control for a new vanity unit in Camden Town?

Building control for Camden Town is handled by the local council or an approved inspector. If your job needs sign-off — for example a new circuit, new drainage or a new extractor where there was none — we tell you at the survey and handle the notification as part of the work.

How long does a new vanity unit take?

Allow half a day to 1 day on site for most jobs, plus the lead time for products after you approve the quote. We give you a day-by-day plan before work starts in Camden Town.

Is the home survey in Camden Town 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 vanity units come with a basin and tap?

Most vanity units are sold with a basin or a one-piece basin and top, while the tap and waste are usually bought separately. Check whether the basin has a tap hole and an overflow, because that decides which tap and waste you need.
