Working in Hunts Cross

In Hunts Cross we cover L19, L24 and L26; we also cover Allerton, 1.4 miles away, and Halewood.

Hunts Cross gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If your Hunts Cross cloakroom still has a pedestal basin, a compact vanity unit adds storage without taking more floor. We quote vanity unit work in Hunts Cross after seeing the wall and pipework, so any re-tiling is on the quote from the start.

Most of Merseyside is supplied with soft water. 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

Removal of the old basin and pedestal, or old vanity, and taking it away
A new tap, trap and the correct slotted or unslotted waste for the basin
Patching or re-tiling the wall where the old basin left gaps
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.

Drawers or doors

Drawers keep things visible and reachable but lose some space to the trap. Doors give a deeper cupboard and cost less.

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.

More about vanity units

Vanity units in Hunts Cross: questions

How much should I budget for a new vanity unit in Hunts Cross?

A new vanity unit in Hunts Cross usually costs £350–£1,400 including VAT. The final figure comes down to what you choose and what we find at the survey; your written quote lists every item so you can see where the money goes.

How long does a new vanity unit take?

Allow half a day to 1 day on site for most jobs, plus the lead time for products after you approve the quote. We give you a day-by-day plan before work starts in Hunts Cross.

Is the home survey in Hunts Cross really free?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

Do you cover L19 in Hunts Cross?

Yes. We cover all of Hunts Cross, including L19, L24 and L26, and nearby Allerton, Halewood and Speke. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Can I replace a pedestal basin with a vanity unit?

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.
