Working in Havant
As well as Havant itself (PO9), we survey in Emsworth, Waterlooville and South Hayling.
In Havant, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. We quote vanity unit work in Havant after seeing the wall and pipework, so any re-tiling is on the quote from the start. Landlords in Havant can have a worn basin replaced with a vanity unit in half a day to a day.
Water across much of Hampshire is 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
- 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
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.
Basin type
An inset or semi-recessed basin, a one-piece moulded top, or a countertop basin on a worktop. Countertop basins need a tall tap or a wall-mounted one.
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.
