Working in Denton
In Denton we cover M34, SK5 and SK16; we also cover Hyde, 1.6 miles away, and Dukinfield.
Homes in and around Denton vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If you have bought a vanity unit for your Denton bathroom, fit-only installation covers connecting the tap and waste and testing for leaks. If your Denton water is hard, a tap with a removable aerator and a smooth one-piece basin top are easier to keep clean.
Water across much of Greater Manchester is soft. In soft water, taps, wastes and toilet pans scale up slowly, so brushed and matt finishes are a safe choice. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Testing for leaks and checking the trap holds its seal
- A check that the wall can carry a wall-hung unit, with fixings to suit solid or stud walls
- Moving the waste and supply positions where the new unit needs them higher, lower or to one side
- Isolation valves on the hot and cold supplies, so the tap can be changed later without draining the system
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.
