Working in Rugby
In Rugby we cover CV21 and CV22; we also cover Daventry, 9 miles away, and Coventry.
Across a large town like Rugby, homes range from older terraces to newer estates; the survey tells us which pipework and floor we are dealing with. If your Rugby water is hard, a tap with a removable aerator and a smooth one-piece basin top are easier to keep clean. If your Rugby cloakroom still has a pedestal basin, a compact vanity unit adds storage without taking more floor.
Supplies across most of Warwickshire are 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
- 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
- Testing for leaks and checking the trap holds its seal
- Isolation valves on the hot and cold supplies, so the tap can be changed later without draining the system
Decisions to make first
Wall-hung or floor-standing
Wall-hung units leave the floor clear and are easy to clean under, but need a strong wall. Floor-standing units hold more and suit weak or uneven walls.
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.
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.
