Vanity Unit Installation in Burslem

Full bathroom installations, project-managed by one local team.

Fitting a vanity unit in a Burslem bathroom nearly always means moving the waste and trap. A pedestal basin sits on the trap; a vanity unit hides it, and the tail height and spigot position differ across manufacturers by 30-90mm.

We survey against the exact unit you've chosen (or spec one that suits the plumbing you already have) so the install is a one-visit fit rather than a return trip once the waste won't line up.

Most of our bathroom fitting jobs in Burslem begin with a slow walk round the house, not a quote on the doorstep.

Bathroom Vanity Unit Installation FAQs — Burslem

Can I keep my existing tap on a new vanity in Burslem?
Usually — mono-block basin taps are portable. Wall-mounted taps need to align with the new basin cutout, which we check at Burslem survey.
Wall-hung or floor-standing for a family bathroom?
Floor-standing hides the plumbing behind a plinth and is more forgiving on old Burslem tiled floors. Wall-hung looks cleaner but requires solid substrate behind the tiles.
Do you fit stone tops?
Yes — 20mm quartz and porcelain tops with under-mount basins, fitted flush to a solid carcase. Templated on-site on Burslem jobs.
How long does it take to fit?
Half a day for a swap; a full day where waste re-routing and re-tiling behind the unit is involved on a Burslem install.
How quickly can you start a job in Burslem?
Lead time is usually two to five weeks from a confirmed quote, depending on the spec and our current schedule across the Staffordshire side.
Do you provide a fixed-price quote before starting?
Always. After a free home visit in Burslem we send a fully itemised, fixed-price quotation — no surprises on invoice day.
