Working in Bebington
In Bebington we cover CH42, CH62 and CH63; we also cover Birkenhead, 3 miles away, and Heswall.
In Bebington, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If your Bebington cloakroom still has a pedestal basin, a compact vanity unit adds storage without taking more floor. Wall-hung vanities in Bebington homes are fixed to suit what the wall is built from, which we check at the survey.
Water across much of Merseyside is 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
- Isolation valves on the hot and cold supplies, so the tap can be changed later without draining the system
- Removal of the old basin and pedestal, or old vanity, and taking it away
- Testing for leaks and checking the trap holds its seal
- Moving the waste and supply positions where the new unit needs them higher, lower or to one side
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.
