Working in Chingford

We work right across Chingford — E4, IG8 and IG9 — and in neighbouring Edmonton and Walthamstow.

London homes in Chingford often mean stairs, permits and neighbours below; we plan the logistics as carefully as the bathroom. If the door of your Chingford bathroom opens inwards and catches the basin, re-hanging it or fitting a sliding door is often part of the plan. If your Chingford bathroom is a box room over the stairs, the first job is finding out where the soil stack lets the WC sit.

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 and tiling, with larger tiles where they suit the walls to cut down grout lines
Space-saving sanitaryware: a short-projection or wall-hung WC and a compact or semi-recessed basin
Recessed niches, mirror cabinets and wall-hung vanity units to get storage off the floor
Two or three layout options, each priced, so you can compare keeping the bath with a walk-in shower

Decisions to make first

Tiles and grout

Larger tiles with a grout close to the tile colour make walls look calmer. Running the same floor tile into the shower makes the floor look continuous.

Storage

Recess shelves into stud walls or boxing, put a mirror cabinet over the basin and use the wall above the WC. Avoid floor-standing units in very tight rooms.

Rules that apply in England

In England, changes to the wiring in a room with a bath or shower are notifiable under Part P, so use an electrician registered with a competent person scheme. If you replace the extractor fan, do not fit one that extracts less than the old one; Approved Document F gives 15 litres per second for an intermittent bathroom fan.

Small bathrooms in Chingford: questions

Is the water hard in Chingford?

Who handles building control for a small bathroom in Chingford?

Building control for Chingford 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.

What makes a small bathroom look bigger?

Showing more floor and fewer edges makes a small bathroom look bigger. Wall-hung WCs and vanities, a single clear glass panel instead of a framed enclosure, larger tiles with matching grout, and the same floor tile running into the shower all help. A wide mirror on the basin wall bounces light around the room.
