GS Renovation refits bathrooms across Chiswick, fitting modern wet rooms, en-suites and family bathrooms into the compact spaces of W4's Victorian and Edwardian terraces. With over 30 years locally, we handle the waterproofing, drainage, tiling, heating and ventilation in-house, so a bathroom in a period home is watertight and built to last.
Wet rooms and tanking in Chiswick homes
A leaking bathroom in a Chiswick terrace can travel into solid walls and down onto the room below, so we treat waterproofing as the foundation of every job. We fully tank wet rooms and walk-in showers before a tile is laid, form the falls to the drain correctly, and upgrade drainage and extraction so moisture leaves the room rather than sitting in old plaster. In period homes that difference protects the fabric of the house.
Because W4 bathrooms are often carved out of a closet wing or a small return, layout is everything. We plan space-saving arrangements that fit a proper shower, basin and WC into a tight footprint, add underfloor heating to free up wall space, and choose tiling that suits the age of the house. The result is a bathroom that feels generous despite the modest dimensions typical of these terraces.
En-suites and family bathrooms in W4
Many Chiswick projects add an en-suite off a main bedroom or reconfigure the existing bathroom over the closet wing to work harder for a growing family. We handle the new soil and waste connections, the concealed plumbing and the mechanical ventilation needed to keep an internal or period room dry. Where an en-suite sits above a habitable room, we detail the waterproofing and pipework so there is no risk of hidden leaks later.
Bathroom electrics, from the extractor and lighting to any electric underfloor heating and shower, are notifiable under building regulations, and we make sure that work is done and certified correctly. We finish with quality tiling, sanitaryware and heated towel rails, working tidily in an occupied home. In W4 terraces where every square metre counts, thoughtful layout and proper services turn an awkward space into a bathroom that works day to day.
