Working in Cheshunt

We work right across Cheshunt — EN7, EN8 and EN9 — and in neighbouring Waltham Abbey and Enfield.

In Cheshunt, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. Landlords in Cheshunt can have a worn basin replaced with a vanity unit in half a day to a day. If your Cheshunt water is hard, a tap with a removable aerator and a smooth one-piece basin top are easier to keep clean.

Most of Hertfordshire 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 check that the wall can carry a wall-hung unit, with fixings to suit solid or stud walls
A new tap, trap and the correct slotted or unslotted waste for the basin
Moving the waste and supply positions where the new unit needs them higher, lower or to one side
Testing for leaks and checking the trap holds its seal

Decisions to make first

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.

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.

Is the water hard in Cheshunt?

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

Building control for Cheshunt 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.

What size vanity unit do I need?

Measure the wall and leave room to stand at the basin and open the door. Cloakroom units can be around 400 mm wide; most family bathrooms take 600 to 800 mm for a single basin and 1200 mm or more for a double. For a whole wall of storage, look at fitted bathroom furniture.
