Working in Royton

As well as Royton itself (OL1, OL2 and OL9), we survey in Chadderton, Oldham and Middleton.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Royton: free survey, written quote, one team. Landlords in Royton can have a worn basin replaced with a vanity unit in half a day to a day. We quote vanity unit work in Royton after seeing the wall and pipework, so any re-tiling is on the quote from the start.

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

Removal of the old basin and pedestal, or old vanity, and taking it away
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
Patching or re-tiling the wall where the old basin left gaps

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.

More about vanity units

Vanity units in Royton: questions

How much does a new vanity unit cost in Royton?

A new vanity unit in Royton usually costs £350–£1,400 including VAT. Expect the lower end for a like-for-like job with standard products, and the upper end if things move or you choose premium finishes. Your quote is itemised and fixed in writing once agreed.

Who handles building control for a new vanity unit in Royton?

Building control for Royton 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 Royton.

Is the home survey in Royton 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.
