What a full bathroom renovation involves
A full bathroom renovation in Southall starts with a complete strip out of the existing suite, tiles and floor covering. Before the new layout is agreed, we assess the floor void, joist direction and existing waste routes. This initial investigation shapes everything that follows and avoids costly changes once works are underway.
First fix plumbing covers rerouting hot and cold supply connections and the waste stack. We install the bath or shower tray, WC and basin connections, and run all supply lines before the walls are boarded up. Waste pipe gradients are checked to Building Regulations requirements throughout.
Wall preparation uses cement backer board and a waterproof tanking membrane in all wet zones before any tile adhesive is applied. Our in-house tiling team then completes the wall and floor tiling, including all cuts, profiles and movement joints. All silicone sealing is completed last — after the suite is fitted and tested.
Electrical works within bathroom zones are completed by our Part P registered electricians: extractor fan, heated towel rail, shaver socket, illuminated mirror. All work is certificated and notified to the local authority on completion. You receive the electrical installation certificate as part of your project handover documentation.
For properties in Ealing, we are familiar with the drainage configurations, joist layouts and building management requirements typical to the area. If your flat is leasehold, we advise on notifying the freeholder or managing agent before works begin.
Things to consider
Planning your bathroom renovation in Southall
Bath or shower only
Removing the bath and installing a walk-in shower gains significant floor space in a smaller room. If the property is a family home or let to families, retaining the bath tends to preserve rental value.
Heated towel rail
A chrome or anthracite heated towel rail is standard on most renovations. Electric only, hot water only, or dual-fuel versions are available depending on whether central heating runs to the bathroom.
Underfloor heating
Electric underfloor heating mats under ceramic or porcelain floor tiles add warmth without raising the floor level significantly. A popular addition on full renovations where the floor is being lifted anyway.

Common questions
Bathroom renovation Southall: frequently asked
How long does a bathroom renovation take in London?
A standard bathroom renovation in London typically takes 1 to 2 weeks from strip out to final finish. Wet rooms may take slightly longer due to the required drying time for the waterproof membrane before tiling can begin. For tenanted properties, factor in that the property will be without a bathroom during this period — we recommend coordinating the work between tenancies where possible.
How much does a bathroom renovation cost in London?
Bathroom renovation costs in London vary by scope and finish. A basic refresh with a new suite and tiling typically costs between 3,000 and 5,000 pounds. A mid-range full renovation including replumbing, tiling and electrical works runs from 5,000 to 8,000 pounds. A premium wet room or luxury finish with underfloor heating and high-end materials can reach 8,000 to 15,000 pounds or more. We provide a fixed quote after a site visit.
Do I need planning permission to renovate my bathroom in London?
Planning permission is generally not required for an internal bathroom renovation. However, listed buildings and properties in conservation areas — both common across London — may require consent for any new external vent openings. If your property is a leasehold flat, you should notify your building management company before works begin. Our team can advise on any consents relevant to your specific property.
Can you renovate a bathroom in a tenanted property?
Yes. We regularly carry out bathroom renovations in tenanted London properties. Coordination with tenants is essential — the property will be without a working bathroom during the works. We provide clear daily progress updates and aim to minimise disruption. For landlords, we can also issue all relevant certificates including Part P notification on completion.
