Working in Walsall

In Walsall we cover WS1, WS2, WS4 and 1 more postcode districts; we also cover Wednesbury, 2.9 miles away, and Wednesfield.

Walsall has a wide mix of house ages, so the survey is where we spot old lead pipework, weak joists or a tight soil stack. Landlords in Walsall can have a worn basin replaced with a vanity unit in half a day to a day. We quote vanity unit work in Walsall after seeing the wall and pipework, so any re-tiling is on the quote from the start.

Supplies across the West Midlands range from soft to hard depending on the source. 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
A new tap, trap and the correct slotted or unslotted waste for the basin
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

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.

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.

Vanity units in Walsall: questions

How much does a new vanity unit cost in Walsall?

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

Building control for Walsall 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.

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 Walsall.

Is the home survey in Walsall 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 vanity units come with a basin and tap?

Most vanity units are sold with a basin or a one-piece basin and top, while the tap and waste are usually bought separately. Check whether the basin has a tap hole and an overflow, because that decides which tap and waste you need.
