Working in Enfield

In Enfield we cover EN1, EN2, EN3 and 6 more postcode districts; we also cover Edmonton, 2.1 miles away, and Tottenham.

London homes in Enfield often mean stairs, permits and neighbours below; we plan the logistics as carefully as the bathroom. If you have bought a vanity unit for your Enfield bathroom, fit-only installation covers connecting the tap and waste and testing for leaks. Landlords in Enfield can have a worn basin replaced with a vanity unit in half a day to a day.

Most of Greater London has very 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
Testing for leaks and checking the trap holds its seal
Patching or re-tiling the wall where the old basin left gaps
Fitting the unit level, with the basin sealed to the top and the top sealed to the wall

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.

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.

Do you cover EN1 in Enfield?

Yes. We cover all of Enfield, including EN1, EN2, EN3, N9 and 5 more postcode districts, and nearby Edmonton, Tottenham and Chingford. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Enfield?

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.
