Wet rooms and en-suites in Havering

The 1930s semis of Havering were built with a single family bathroom, often over the hallway or above the kitchen, so adding an en-suite or a second bathroom is a frequent request. In these homes we carve space from a large main bedroom or the landing, and we design compact, well-planned layouts that fit without feeling cramped. Every wet area is properly tanked and waterproofed before tiling, so moisture never reaches the timber floors of an interwar house.

Walk-in showers and full wet rooms are popular in RM11 and RM12 homes, whether for a sleek modern finish or to make a bathroom easier to use over time. A wet room needs the floor tanked, the gradient formed correctly to the drain, and reliable extraction to manage humidity, all of which we build in from the start. We upgrade the drainage and soil connections where the original interwar pipework is undersized or in the wrong place.

Waterproofing and comfort across Havering

Getting a bathroom right in an older Havering home is as much about what sits behind the tiles as the tiles themselves. We tank showers and wet areas thoroughly, seal around trays and junctions, and detail the waterproofing so leaks never start. Ventilation matters just as much in these interwar houses, so we fit effective extraction to clear steam and protect the plaster and paintwork, keeping the room fresh and free of damp.

Underfloor heating under tiled or stone floors takes the chill off a north-facing Havering bathroom and frees up wall space by removing the radiator. We can pair it with heated towel rails, thermostatic showers and quality brassware to suit your budget. Bathroom electrics are notifiable under Building Regulations, so the wiring, extraction and any electric underfloor heating are installed and certified correctly. From a family bathroom in RM1 to an en-suite in RM14, we finish the whole room to a high standard.

George was brilliant. Lovely bloke, very reasonably priced and a perfectionist to boot. He completed our small kitchen renovation with care and great attention to detail. I've already recommended him to others.

Why choose GS Renovation for bathroom renovation in Havering?

Havering homeowners choose GS Renovation for reliability and quality. We are fully insured, building control compliant where needed, and bring over 30 years of hands-on experience to every bathroom renovation project, with a single point of contact throughout.

Do I need building regulations for a bathroom in Havering?

Yes. Bathroom electrics in Havering are notifiable under Part P and must be certified, and any drainage, ventilation or structural changes must meet building regulations. We include certified electrical work and manage building control on every bathroom project.

Do you work on 1930s and interwar homes in Havering?

Yes. A large share of Havering's homes are 1930s and interwar properties, and we renovate them regularly. We plan each bathroom renovation around their particular characteristics, such as cavity walls, regular original layouts and the generous plots that suit extending, so the result suits the building and meets building control.

Can you add an en-suite to my 1930s semi in Havering?

Usually, yes. In Havering's interwar semis we often create an en-suite by taking a little space from a large main bedroom or the landing, then designing a compact layout that works. We tank the wet areas, run new drainage and ventilation, and certify the notifiable electrics under Building Regulations. The result is a neat, watertight en-suite that suits the age of the house.
