Working in Frome

We cover every part of Frome, including BA11, and nearby Westbury (6.2 miles) and Warminster (6.4 miles).

Homes in and around Frome vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. We quote vanity unit work in Frome after seeing the wall and pipework, so any re-tiling is on the quote from the start. Landlords in Frome can have a worn basin replaced with a vanity unit in half a day to a day.

Most of Somerset has hard water. Taps, plug wastes and toilet pans scale up quickly, so chrome copes better than matt black, and a removable aerator is worth having. 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
A check that the wall can carry a wall-hung unit, with fixings to suit solid or stud walls
Testing for leaks and checking the trap holds its seal

Decisions to make first

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.

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.

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 Frome: questions

How much does a new vanity unit cost in Frome?

A new vanity unit in Frome usually costs £350–£1,550 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 Frome.

Is the home survey in Frome 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 BA11 in Frome?

Yes. We cover all of Frome, including BA11, and nearby Westbury, Warminster and Trowbridge. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

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.
