Working in Canning Town

We cover every part of Canning Town, including E13, E14 and E16, and nearby Stratford (1.6 miles) and Bow (1.8 miles).

London homes in Canning Town often mean stairs, permits and neighbours below; we plan the logistics as carefully as the bathroom. We quote wet rooms in Canning Town only after looking at the floor construction, because that is where most of the cost difference lies. If you are planning a wet room in Canning Town for level access, we design the fall and drain so the floor is flush from the doorway.

Supplies across most of Greater London are very hard. If your supply in Canning Town is the same, limescale on shower glass and heads is a real issue: easy-clean glass, rub-clean nozzles and a squeegee make a big difference. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

A pre-formed floor former with a linear or centre drain, or a screed laid to fall
A thermostatic shower valve, exposed or concealed, with heads to suit your water system
Full tanking of the floor and the shower walls, with sealed corners, pipe collars and a sealed drain connection
A frameless glass screen fixed to the wall and floor

Decisions to make first

Screen size

A screen of 1200 mm or more keeps spray off the rest of the room in most layouts. In a very small wet room, expect the whole floor to get wet.

Open or screened

A fully open shower with no glass only works in a larger room, with the basin, WC and towels well away from the spray.

Rules that apply in England

In England, a new drain connection or changes at the soil stack can be building-regulations work under Part H, and new circuits or changes to the wiring in the room are notifiable under Part P. If the wet room is a newly formed bathroom, Approved Document F requires extract of 15 litres per second intermittent or 8 litres per second continuous.

More about wet rooms

Wet rooms in Canning Town: questions

How much should I budget for a wet room in Canning Town?

A wet room in Canning Town usually costs £7,500–£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.

How long does a wet room take?

Allow 5–10 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 Canning Town.

Is the home survey in Canning Town 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.

Do you cover E13 in Canning Town?

Yes. We cover all of Canning Town, including E13, E14 and E16, and nearby Stratford, Bow and Canary Wharf. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Do wet rooms leak?

A properly tanked wet room should not leak. When one does, the cause is usually a gap in the membrane at a corner or pipe, a poor drain connection, or a floor that flexes and splits the seal. Leaks in wet rooms are expensive to trace, which is why the floor is stiffened first and the tanking is checked before tiling.
