Bathroom Renovation Cheshunt

GS Renovation fits bathrooms in Cheshunt houses and flats, from a straight replacement to a room that changes shape. Waterproofing, falls and waste runs are settled before anything is tiled. We work in occupied homes, sheet the route in and out, and quote free of charge with no obligation.

For Cheshunt, on London-derived ranges a full bathroom refit typically costs £6,000 to £20,000 or more; Hertfordshire work generally runs below that. GS Renovation Ltd, a building contractor based in Potters Bar, does the work in Cheshunt: we carry the tanking, plumbing and tiling as one contract, with the electrics certified by a registered electrician.

How the job runs

1. Free design visit at your Cheshunt home and an itemised quote.
2. Strip-out, then first-fix plumbing and electrics.
3. Tanking to the wet areas, then tiling.
4. Sanitaryware and second fix, with notifiable electrics certified by a registered electrician.

Bathrooms for owners who are staying put

Ownership sets the brief on this work. At the 2021 census, 69.6 per cent of households in the six Cheshunt middle layer super output areas owned their home outright or with a mortgage. An owner is specifying a bathroom to live with rather than to let, so the budget belongs in the parts that are hard to put right later.

That is why the sequence puts the invisible work first. The waste route, the falls to the shower gully, the tanking behind the tiles and the extract fan are all fixed before a single tile goes on. Tiling over a compromise in any of those is the reason bathrooms come back for a second go.

Housing in Cheshunt

Cheshunt's housing, as the Council Tax list records it, is about 18,660 homes: 75% houses, 25% flats, with 6% pre-1919, 9% interwar and 84% built since 1945. 41% of homes here are terraced; a terrace bathroom in Cheshunt vents front, back or up, never into a party wall.

Bathrooms in Cheshunt flats

One in five Cheshunt households lives in a flat, and a bathroom in a flat is a different job. At the 2021 census, 20.6 per cent of Cheshunt households lived in a purpose built block of flats and 10.6 per cent in a detached house. In a flat the ceiling below belongs to somebody else, so the tanking, the falls and the pipe route are the whole job rather than a detail of it.

The lease comes first in a flat. Alterations are governed by it, so the freeholder or managing agent is approached before dates are booked, and access, working hours and waste removal are agreed with the building. Where a wall is moving and it turns out to be structural, an engineer is appointed and building control is notified, exactly as in a house.

• Soil pipe and waste re-routing within the floor build-up
• Shower pumps and pressure improvements where flow is poor
• Niches, benches and recessed storage formed in the wet area
