Working in Holloway
We work right across Holloway — N7, N19 and NW5 — and in neighbouring Highbury and Archway.
London homes in Holloway often mean stairs, permits and neighbours below; we plan the logistics as carefully as the bathroom. If you have young children at home in Holloway, we can talk through a bath that is easy to lean over, a slip-resistant floor and high-level storage. For a busy Holloway household sharing one main bathroom, a thermostatic shower over a full-size bath is usually the most practical layout.
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
- Supply of the bath, basin, WC, brassware, shower, screen, tiles and heated towel rail
- A free home survey covering room sizes, the soil stack position, your boiler or cylinder type and water pressure
- Final silicone, a test of every tap and waste, and a clean handover
- New pipework, wastes and isolation valves, plus a thermostatic shower valve so the temperature holds when someone runs a tap
Decisions to make first
Shower over the bath or separate
A shower over the bath with a fixed or hinged screen is the most space-efficient. A separate enclosure needs roughly another square metre of floor but means the bath queue no longer holds up the shower queue.
Bath shape
A standard 1700 mm bath fits most rooms. A shower bath widens at one end to give more standing room under the shower; a double-ended bath puts the waste in the middle so two children can share without one sitting on the plug.
Rules that apply in England
In England, any new circuit, or any change to the wiring in a room with a bath or shower, is notifiable under Part P. Part G limits the hot water at a new bath to 48 °C only in a new dwelling or one created by change of use; it does not apply to a replacement bath in an existing house, but a thermostatic valve is a sensible choice where children bathe.
