GS Renovation renovates bathrooms across Ealing, from squeezing an en-suite into an Edwardian villa in W5 to fitting a family bathroom in a Victorian terrace in Hanwell. With 30+ years in the borough, we handle waterproofing, drainage, tiling and heating so your new bathroom is watertight, warm and built to last.
Waterproofing and wet rooms in Ealing homes
A bathroom lives or dies on what happens behind the tiles, especially in Ealing's older terraces where floors and walls are rarely perfectly true. We tank and waterproof properly before tiling, sealing the wet zones so moisture never reaches the timber or plaster behind. For walk-in showers and full wet rooms we form the falls, fit the drainage and lay a tanked substrate, giving a level, step-free finish that suits both period homes and modern tastes.
Getting drainage and ventilation right is essential in these houses, where soil pipes often run down the rear closet wing and original rooms hold damp easily. We route new waste correctly, install extraction to clear moisture, and where the layout allows we add underfloor heating for warmth underfoot. The result across Ealing is a bathroom that stays dry, ventilated and free of the damp problems that plague poorly built refits.
Space-saving bathrooms and en-suites in W7
Period bathrooms in Ealing are often small, tucked over the closet wing or carved out of a former bedroom. We plan these tight spaces carefully, using wall-hung sanitaryware, slim shower enclosures and clever storage to make a compact room feel generous. Where a house has the ceiling height, we can even work in an en-suite off the main bedroom without losing the proportions that give an Edwardian home its character.
Every layout is drawn around the existing services and the realities of the house, so we position the WC, basin and shower to keep pipe runs sensible and the drainage sound. Tiling, lighting and heated towel rails complete the room, and all notifiable electrical work is certified under building regulations. Across W7 and the wider borough we turn awkward period bathrooms into practical, well-finished spaces.
