Working in Garston
We cover every part of Garston, including L18, L19, L24 and 1 more postcode districts, and nearby Hunts Cross (2.1 miles) and Allerton (2.3 miles).
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Garston: free survey, written quote, one team. If you have bought a vanity unit for your Garston bathroom, fit-only installation covers connecting the tap and waste and testing for leaks. We quote vanity unit work in Garston after seeing the wall and pipework, so any re-tiling is on the quote from the start.
Supplies across most of Merseyside 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
- Patching or re-tiling the wall where the old basin left gaps
- Moving the waste and supply positions where the new unit needs them higher, lower or to one side
- Fitting the unit level, with the basin sealed to the top and the top sealed to the wall
- Isolation valves on the hot and cold supplies, so the tap can be changed later without draining the system
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.
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.
