Working in Stamford Hill

We cover every part of Stamford Hill, including E5, N15 and N16, and nearby Highbury (1.7 miles) and Tottenham (2.4 miles).

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

Water across much of Greater London is very hard. If your supply in Stamford Hill 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
Strip-out, waste removal, a final flow test to the drain and handover
Slip-resistant porcelain floor tiles and wall tiling
A frameless glass screen fixed to the wall and floor

Decisions to make first

Underfloor heating

Electric underfloor heating under the tiles dries the floor quickly after a shower; it is typically £700 to £1,500 for a bathroom.

Former or screed

A pre-formed board gives a consistent fall and suits timber floors. A sand and cement screed suits concrete slabs and larger shower areas.

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.

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.
