Working in Faversham

We cover every part of Faversham, including ME13, and nearby Whitstable (6.7 miles) and Sittingbourne (7 miles).

Faversham gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. We quote vanity unit work in Faversham after seeing the wall and pipework, so any re-tiling is on the quote from the start. Wall-hung vanities in Faversham homes are fixed to suit what the wall is built from, which we check at the survey.

Water across much of Kent is very 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

A check that the wall can carry a wall-hung unit, with fixings to suit solid or stud walls
Testing for leaks and checking the trap holds its seal
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

Decisions to make first

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.

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.
