Before you buy
When a swap isnot a swap.
Four things decide whether an installation is simple or needs extra work.
01
The waste sits at a different height
Every fixture has its waste outlet at a set height. If the new toilet takes a floor outlet and yours is in the wall, or the other way round, the installation means changing the waste and not just connecting it.
02
The unit hangs on the wall
A wall hung toilet or basin is not held by tiling. Each needs a steel frame fixed into the wall behind the finish to carry the whole load, and that is decided before the tiling, not after it.
03
The new unit is a different size
A new basin may cover the old fixing holes or fall short of them, and a new toilet may be longer and stand away from the wall. Checking the dimensions before buying saves a trip back to the shop.
04
There is no valve for it
A fixture installed with no angle valve of its own means any later repair stops water to the house. A proper installation includes a valve on each supply arriving at it.

What setsthis area apart
Anjafa flats are fairly uniform in design, mostly 5-storey blocks. Pipes run vertically from above or emerge from the floor near the wall. The riser height is consistent across most units, so selecting fixtures is straightforward compared to other areas. Bathrooms are compact but have enough space to install a tub or shower properly.
Anjafa is a residential district in Hawalli governorate, with standardised apartment buildings of uniform height.
Most waste lines in Anjafa are 4 inches, running vertically down a central stack from upper floors to the main chamber below.

How we fit it
From measuringto running it.
The order here saves breaking, which is why we do not rush it.
We measure waste and supply
The height of the waste outlet and the positions of the supply pipes are measured against the new unit's own dimensions, before anything old comes off.
We remove and prepare
The old unit comes off, the old silicone is removed completely and the surface cleaned, because any residue stops new silicone bonding properly.
We fix and level it
The unit is fixed and levelled first, and connected second. Connecting before fixing means any later adjustment pulls on the joints and they start weeping later.
We connect, test and seal
Water and waste are connected, the unit is run, and every joint is checked under pressure. The silicone bead goes on last, once everything is proven dry.
Common questions
Questions about Sanitary fixture installation in Anjafa
We use breakers to remove the cement carefully so the pipes are not damaged. Then we clean the wall and mount the new fixture on a flat surface.
In most cases yes, because the available space and outlet size do not change. But we can install a corner shower with a smaller tray instead of a tub if you do not want to move the pipe.
