Can I keep my existing tap on a new vanity in Tunstall?

Usually — mono-block basin taps are portable. Wall-mounted taps need to align with the new basin cutout, which we check at Tunstall survey.

Wall-hung or floor-standing for a family bathroom?

Floor-standing hides the plumbing behind a plinth and is more forgiving on old Tunstall 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 Tunstall 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 Tunstall install.

Do you tidy up at the end of each day?

Yes — dust sheets stay down, the room is hoovered daily and we leave your Tunstall home liveable while the work runs.

Are you fully insured for work in Tunstall?

Yes — we hold full public liability cover and every job in Tunstall comes with a written workmanship guarantee.

Fitting a vanity unit in a Tunstall 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.

What makes bathroom fitting in Tunstall different from a generic install is how we plan around the building it's going into.
