Working in Golborne
We work right across Golborne — WA3, WA12 and WN4 — and in neighbouring Newton-le-Willows and Ashton in Makerfield.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Golborne: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Golborne water is hard, a tap with a removable aerator and a smooth one-piece basin top are easier to keep clean. If your Golborne cloakroom still has a pedestal basin, a compact vanity unit adds storage without taking more floor.
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
- 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
- Moving the waste and supply positions where the new unit needs them higher, lower or to one side
- Patching or re-tiling the wall where the old basin left gaps
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.
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.
