GS Renovation renovates bathrooms across Newham, from first-floor bathrooms in Forest Gate terraces to en-suites in Royal Docks apartments. With 30+ years of experience in E6, E7, E12, E13, E15 and E16, we handle the waterproofing, drainage, tiling, heating and fit-out so the finished room lasts and stays dry.
Waterproofing and wet rooms in Newham
A bathroom lives or dies on what you cannot see, so we tank and waterproof properly before a single tile goes on. In Newham's timber-floored Victorian and Edwardian terraces this matters even more, as movement and old joists demand a sound, flexible substrate. We form walk-in showers and full wet rooms with correctly graded falls, drainage that copes with the flow, and ventilation that clears moisture instead of letting it soak into the fabric.
Getting the drainage and extraction right protects the whole house, not just the room. We route waste to the existing soil stack, upgrade ventilation to meet building regulations, and specify tiling and tanking suited to a wet environment. Across E6 and E12 this careful groundwork is what stops leaks reaching the ceiling below and keeps a period terrace free of the damp these houses are prone to.
Space-saving bathrooms in Newham terraces
Bathrooms in Newham terraces are often tucked into the rear closet wing or squeezed above the stairs, so every centimetre counts. We plan compact layouts that still feel generous, wall-hung basins and WCs to free up floor space, walk-in showers in place of bulky enclosures, and underfloor heating that removes the need for a radiator. Good lighting and the right tile scale make a small E7 bathroom feel considerably larger.
Adding an en-suite is popular where a Newham loft or rear bedroom allows, and we handle the drainage runs and the pump where gravity will not do the work. In the leasehold apartments near Stratford and the Royal Docks we design with sound insulation and the flat below in mind, keeping pipework quiet and well sealed. Whatever the property, the whole room is delivered by one team.
- En-suite creation in bedrooms and loft rooms
- Tanking membranes and waterproof boards behind tiles
- Wall and floor tiling in stone, porcelain or mosaic
- Ventilation and extraction ducted to outside
- Concealed cisterns, frames and wall-hung sanitaryware
