Working in Haverhill
As well as Haverhill itself (CB9), we survey in Saffron Walden, Newmarket and Sudbury.
Homes in and around Haverhill vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If you have bought a vanity unit for your Haverhill bathroom, fit-only installation covers connecting the tap and waste and testing for leaks. Wall-hung vanities in Haverhill homes are fixed to suit what the wall is built from, which we check at the survey.
Water across much of Suffolk is very hard. 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 check that the wall can carry a wall-hung unit, with fixings to suit solid or stud walls
- 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
Drawers or doors
Drawers keep things visible and reachable but lose some space to the trap. Doors give a deeper cupboard and cost less.
One basin or two
Two basins help a busy household if the wall is long enough. In a smaller room, one basin with a longer top often works better.
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.
