Working in Coalville

In Coalville we cover LE67; we also cover Loughborough, 7.7 miles away, and Swadlincote.

Homes in and around Coalville vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. We quote vanity unit work in Coalville after seeing the wall and pipework, so any re-tiling is on the quote from the start. If you have bought a vanity unit for your Coalville bathroom, fit-only installation covers connecting the tap and waste and testing for leaks.

Supplies across most of Leicestershire are 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 new tap, trap and the correct slotted or unslotted waste for the basin
Testing for leaks and checking the trap holds its seal
Isolation valves on the hot and cold supplies, so the tap can be changed later without draining the system
Fitting the unit level, with the basin sealed to the top and the top sealed to the wall

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 home survey in Coalville really free?

Do you cover LE67 in Coalville?

Yes. The existing supply and waste positions usually work with a vanity unit, sometimes with the waste lowered or moved slightly to clear a drawer. The tiles often need patching where the pedestal and basin sat.
