What does a new vanity unit cost in Liverpool?

In Liverpool, a new vanity unit typically costs £350–£1,400 including VAT, based on North West England prices. Prices in North West England run at about 6% below the national guide, mainly because of labour rates. The figure depends on the size of the room, whether anything moves, and the products you pick.

Working in Liverpool

We work right across Liverpool — L1, L2, L3 and 15 more postcode districts — and in neighbouring Birkenhead and Wallasey.

Liverpool is a big place with every kind of home, from terraces to flats to new builds, so we never price from a photo alone. We quote vanity unit work in Liverpool after seeing the wall and pipework, so any re-tiling is on the quote from the start. Landlords in Liverpool can have a worn basin replaced with a vanity unit in half a day to a day.

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

  • Fitting the unit level, with the basin sealed to the top and the top sealed to the wall
  • A new tap, trap and the correct slotted or unslotted waste for the basin
  • Isolation valves on the hot and cold supplies, so the tap can be changed later without draining the system
  • 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.

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 Liverpool: questions

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

A new vanity unit in Liverpool usually costs £350–£1,400 including VAT. Where you land in that range depends on the size of the room, whether the layout changes and the products you choose. After the free survey you get an itemised written quote, and the price is fixed in writing once the layout and products are agreed.

Do you cover L1 in Liverpool?

Yes. We cover all of Liverpool, including L1, L2, L3, L4 and 14 more postcode districts, and nearby Birkenhead, Wallasey and Litherland. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Liverpool?

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.

Who handles building control for a new vanity unit in Liverpool?

Building control for Liverpool is handled by the local council or an approved inspector. If your job needs sign-off — for example a new circuit, new drainage or a new extractor where there was none — we tell you at the survey and handle the notification as part of the work.

Can a wall-hung vanity unit go on a stud wall?

Yes, if there are timber noggins or a fixing frame behind the board at the right height. In a new stud wall these go in before boarding; in an existing one, the board is opened, noggins are added and the wall is made good. Plasterboard fixings alone are not enough for a loaded basin unit.
