Working in Peckham

In Peckham we cover SE5, SE14 and SE15; we also cover Brixton, 1.7 miles away, and Greenwich.

London homes in Peckham often mean stairs, permits and neighbours below; we plan the logistics as carefully as the bathroom. For homes in Peckham where the bathroom is the only one, we plan the work so the toilet is out of action for as short a time as possible. Fitted furniture suits the many Peckham bathrooms that have to hold towels, toiletries and cleaning things for a whole household.

Supplies across most of Greater London are very hard. 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

Boarding, tanking in the wet areas, wall and floor tiling
Electrical work by a qualified electrician: lighting, extractor fan, shaver socket or heating, tested and certified
First and second-fix plumbing, including concealed cistern frames and new isolation valves
Layout options drawn to your room, including where the furniture run, bath or shower and towel rail will go

Decisions to make first

Tiling height

Tiling just the wet areas keeps the cost down. Full-height tiling looks better and is easier to wipe clean.

Bath, shower or both

Keep a bath for children or soaking, swap it for a walk-in shower if no one uses it, or plan both if the room is big enough.

Rules that apply in England

In England, new circuits and most electrical changes in a bathroom are notifiable under Part P, so they must be done by an electrician registered with a competent person scheme or notified to building control. If you are adding a new extractor fan, Approved Document F gives 15 litres per second as the usual intermittent extract rate.

More about fitted bathrooms

Fitted bathrooms in Peckham: questions

How much does a fitted bathroom cost in Peckham?

A fitted bathroom in Peckham usually costs £8,100–£15,000 including VAT. Where you land in that range depends on the size of the room, whether the layout changes and the products you choose. After the free survey you get an itemised written quote, and the price is fixed in writing once the layout and products are agreed.

Who handles building control for a fitted bathroom in Peckham?

Building control for Peckham is handled by the local council or an approved inspector. If your job needs sign-off — for example a new circuit, new drainage or a new extractor where there was none — we tell you at the survey and handle the notification as part of the work.

How long does a fitted bathroom take?

Allow 6–10 working days on site for most jobs, plus the lead time for products after you approve the quote. We give you a day-by-day plan before work starts in Peckham.

Is the home survey in Peckham really free?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

What is the difference between a fitted bathroom and a normal bathroom?

In a fitted bathroom the basin, WC and storage are built into one continuous run of furniture, with the cistern and pipes hidden behind panels and a worktop across the top. A standard bathroom uses separate pieces, such as a pedestal basin and close-coupled toilet, which leave gaps and visible pipework.
