Working in Lytham St Annes
We cover every part of Lytham St Annes, including FY4 and FY8, and nearby Blackpool (5.6 miles) and Poulton-le-Fylde (6.3 miles).
In Lytham St Annes, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. Wall-hung vanities in Lytham St Annes homes are fixed to suit what the wall is built from, which we check at the survey. If your Lytham St Annes water is hard, a tap with a removable aerator and a smooth one-piece basin top are easier to keep clean.
Supplies across most of Lancashire are 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
- Patching or re-tiling the wall where the old basin left gaps
- Fitting the unit level, with the basin sealed to the top and the top sealed to the wall
- A check that the wall can carry a wall-hung unit, with fixings to suit solid or stud walls
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.
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.
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.
