Working in Chingford
In Chingford we cover E4, IG8 and IG9; we also cover Edmonton, 2.5 miles away, and Walthamstow.
In Chingford, many bathrooms are in flats or converted houses, so we check lease consents, access and the floor below before we price. Wall-hung vanities in Chingford homes are fixed to suit what the wall is built from, which we check at the survey. Landlords in Chingford can have a worn basin replaced with a vanity unit in half a day to a day.
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
- 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
- A new tap, trap and the correct slotted or unslotted waste for the basin
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.
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.
