Working in Thornton-Cleveleys
As well as Thornton-Cleveleys itself (FY2, FY5 and FY6), we survey in Poulton-le-Fylde, Fleetwood and Blackpool.
Homes in and around Thornton-Cleveleys vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. We quote vanity unit work in Thornton-Cleveleys after seeing the wall and pipework, so any re-tiling is on the quote from the start. If your Thornton-Cleveleys cloakroom still has a pedestal basin, a compact vanity unit adds storage without taking more floor.
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
- 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
- Removal of the old basin and pedestal, or old vanity, and taking it away
- A check that the wall can carry a wall-hung unit, with fixings to suit solid or stud walls
Decisions to make first
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.
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.
