Working in Muswell Hill
As well as Muswell Hill itself (N2, N8 and N10), we survey in Wood Green, Archway and Finchley.
In Muswell Hill, 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 Muswell Hill homes are fixed to suit what the wall is built from, which we check at the survey. If your Muswell Hill cloakroom still has a pedestal basin, a compact vanity unit adds storage without taking more floor.
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
- 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
- Removal of the old basin and pedestal, or old vanity, and taking it away
- A check that the wall can carry a wall-hung unit, with fixings to suit solid or stud walls
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.
Drawers or doors
Drawers keep things visible and reachable but lose some space to the trap. Doors give a deeper cupboard and cost less.
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.
