FAQs
Which types of commercial premises in Lancing benefit most from a washroom plumbing upgrade?
Almost any non-domestic building can see advantages, including offices, factories, schools, restaurants, GP surgeries and leisure centres. Upgrading fixtures and pipework improves hygiene, reduces water and energy bills, minimises maintenance call-outs and helps businesses meet current accessibility and sustainability standards. Because we are based near Lancing, we can quickly survey your site and tailor the specification to your daily footfall and industry-specific regulations.
What exactly is included in a commercial washroom upgrade service?
Our turnkey package can cover: removal and safe disposal of old sanitaryware; design of new cubicle layouts; installation of new pipe runs, isolation valves and pressure-reducing valves; fitting of WCs, urinals, basins, showers and baby-change units; sensor-operated taps and flush valves; TMV3 thermostatic mixing valves; IPS (integrated plumbing system) panels; anti-slip flooring and hygienic wall cladding; disabled-access Doc-M packs; and hand-drying or paper-towel solutions. We also test and commission the entire system, provide as-fitted drawings and issue the relevant certification.
How long will the refurbishment take and will we have to close our washrooms?
Duration depends on size and complexity, but a typical three-cubicle male/female block is completed in 5–7 working days. For larger multi-storey buildings a phased programme can be arranged to keep part of the facility open. We can schedule noisy or water-off works outside your trading hours and provide temporary restroom units if required. A detailed timeline is agreed before we start so you always know when each area will be out of service.
Do you handle compliance with Building Regulations, Water Regulations and commercial health & safety?
Yes. Our plumbers are WaterSafe and WRAS-approved, so all backflow prevention, pipe materials and jointing methods meet the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999. We also ensure the layout satisfies Part G (sanitation and water efficiency) and Part M (accessibility) of the Building Regulations. Risk assessments, method statements and hot-works permits are supplied, and our team carries full public liability insurance for commercial premises.
Can you install water-saving or touch-free fixtures to lower our running costs?
Absolutely. Sensor taps, dual-flush concealed cisterns, waterless or 0.8 L/flush urinals, aerated shower heads and timed-flow controls can cut water consumption by up to 70 %. Touch-free technology also reduces cross-contamination, helping you provide a more hygienic environment for staff and visitors. We can monitor your current usage and project ROI so you can see how quickly the upgrade will pay for itself.
What does a commercial washroom upgrade in Lancing cost and what factors influence the price?
Budgets range from £2,000–£3,000 per cubicle for a basic refresh to £5,000+ for premium finishes and automated controls. Key cost drivers are: number of cubicles and basins, requirement for drainage alterations, choice of sanitaryware and wall/floor finishes, accessibility adaptations, out-of-hours working, and whether the mains supply needs pressure boosting or treatment. After a free site survey we provide a fixed quotation with a line-by-line breakdown so you can adjust the specification to suit your budget.
