Common problems encountered during and after installation The Twyford TOTAL INSTALL System solutions and innovations
Fixings usually not supplied Supplied complete with magnetic fixings which are simple and quick to apply - SOLUTION
Access for maintenance is difficult and can cause damage to the panel Magnetic fixings make access fast and straightforward, without the risk of damage - SOLUTION

Other common problems encountered during and after installation The Twyford TOTAL INSTALL System solutions and innovations
Baths
Fitting requires many small components - not all supplied Baths are supplied complete with all necessary screws and fixings - SOLUTION
Non-standardised fixings require many different tools Standardised fixings reduce the number of tools needed - INNOVATION
Taphole size means taps can be fitted out of alignment and too close to tiles, causing seepage of water Smaller tapholes mean taps are easier to fit and align correctly. This reduces the risk of water seepage and prevents taps being too close to tiles - INNOVATION
Post-installation settlement can cause water seepage behind the bath Supplied complete with Bath Upstand Kit, maintaining a seal if movement occurs - fit and forget - SOLUTION
Difficulty in achieving a strong, rigid installation Strong tubular legset guarantees rigidity in situ - SOLUTION
High risk of damage prior to installation In storage, the bath stands on its metal feet - not on the acrylic - SOLUTION
Average reduction in assembly time: from 40 mins to 5 mins
Bath panels
Panels can easily get scuffed Vinyl coating is scuff resistant and easy to clean - INNOVATION

Floor fixing is not always secure and fixings are left visible Supplied complete with professional Fischer fixings with rawl plug and integral cover - SOLUTION
Screw holes can get damaged by drilling through Larger screw holes in foot of pan allow for drilling through - SOLUTION
WC suites - seats
Assembly and fitting involves lots of components and can be very time consuming Seat and cover are pre-assembled. Fast fix hinge with centralised positioning is easy and quick to fit accurately, using a special tool provided and requires no re-adjustment - INNOVATION
Corrosion often occurs Hinge is non-corrosive - SOLUTION
Seat gets damaged after installation and before handover to the end user Packaging provides a post-installation protective cover - SOLUTION
Average reduction in installation time: 50%

 

Basins

Common problems encountered during and after installation The Twyford TOTAL INSTALL System solutions and innovations
Taphole size means taps can be fitted out of alignment Smaller tapholes mean taps are easier to fit and align correctly. This reduces the risk of water seepage - INNOVATION
Smaller Tap Holes (click image) Basin Fixing Bracket (click image)
Common problems encountered during and after installation The Twyford TOTAL INSTALL System solutions and innovations
Fixings not normally supplied for wall bolted basins Supplied complete with fixing bracket ready fitted. Suits most wall types - INNOVATION
Basin is often fixed prior to tiling, then unfixed and re-fixed after tiling Bracket enables the basin to be adjusted to allow for tiling behind without removing basin - SOLUTION

Other common problems encountered during and after installation The Twyford TOTAL INSTALL System solutions and innovations
Pedestals
Risk of misalignment of waste pipe when plumbed to a floor outlet, possibly causing leeks Pedestal allows clearance for fitting of in-line waste pipe - ideal for cloakrooms - SOLUTION
Semi-recessed washbasins
Accurate cutting of worktop can be difficult and time consuming Deeper flange at front of basin allows greater tolerance on cutting of worktop - SOLUTION
Taphole size means taps can be fitted out of alignment Smaller tapholes mean taps are easier to fit and align correctly. This reduces the risk of water seepage - INNOVATION
