Working in Rotherham
We cover every part of Rotherham, including S60, S61, S64 and 1 more postcode districts, and nearby Rawmarsh (2.2 miles) and Wath upon Dearne (5 miles).
Across a large town like Rotherham, homes range from older terraces to newer estates; the survey tells us which pipework and floor we are dealing with. Landlords in Rotherham can have a worn basin replaced with a vanity unit in half a day to a day. If your Rotherham water is hard, a tap with a removable aerator and a smooth one-piece basin top are easier to keep clean.
Supplies across most of South Yorkshire are moderately hard. Taps and wastes will need an occasional descale, and chrome or brushed finishes are easier to keep clean than polished brass. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- 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
- Moving the waste and supply positions where the new unit needs them higher, lower or to one side
- Removal of the old basin and pedestal, or old vanity, and taking it away
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.
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.
