Working in Canary Wharf
We cover every part of Canary Wharf, including E3, E14 and SE16, and nearby Bow (1.5 miles) and Canning Town (1.8 miles).
In Canary Wharf, many bathrooms are in flats or converted houses, so we check lease consents, access and the floor below before we price. If you have just bought a house in Canary Wharf, renovating the bathroom before moving in saves living through the dust. If your Canary Wharf home is older and the bathroom still has original pipework or plaster behind the tiles, the survey shows whether a renovation or a refit makes more sense.
Most of Greater London has very hard water. We plan easy-clean glass, rimless toilets and finishes that do not show limescale. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Layout changes such as moved doors, new stud walls or boxing for concealed cisterns
- Repairs to rotten floorboards, joists or other timber found once the room is open
- Re-plastering or boarding, with cement-based boards and tanking in the wet areas
- A survey of the structure and services: joists, walls, ceilings, pipework, wastes, wiring and ventilation
Decisions to make first
Shower floor
With the floor already up, a renovation is the easiest time to form a level shower floor or a full wet room.
Pipe material
Copper suits exposed runs and the area near the boiler. Plastic pipe is quicker under floors and inside walls, and long runs need fewer joints.
Rules that apply in England
In England, structural changes, new drainage or a new connection to the soil stack under Part H, and new circuits under Part P can all be building regulations work. A registered electrician can self-certify the electrics; structural and drainage work may need a building notice or a full plans application to building control.
