GS Renovation fits bathrooms across Uxbridge, from family bathrooms in 1930s semis to en-suites and wet rooms in modern UB8 homes. With over 30 years of experience in the area, we handle the waterproofing, the drainage, the tiling and the electrics, delivering watertight, well-ventilated bathrooms that make the most of the space an interwar house offers.
Wet rooms and walk-in showers in Uxbridge
Wet rooms and walk-in showers are a popular upgrade in Uxbridge, but they only work if the waterproofing is done properly. We fully tank the floor and walls in the shower zone, forming the falls to the drain before a single tile goes down, so water goes where it should and stays out of the structure. In the timber upper floors typical of interwar semis, getting the fall and the tanking right is what separates a lasting wet room from a leaking one.
Ventilation and drainage matter just as much. We fit extraction that clears the moisture that older UB8 bathrooms tend to trap, and we route the waste to fall correctly to the existing stack. Underfloor heating can go beneath the tiles to keep the room warm and the floor dry, and all bathroom electrics are installed to the correct zones and certified as notifiable work under the building regulations.
En-suites and space-saving layouts in Uxbridge
Many 1930s Uxbridge houses have a decent main bedroom but no en-suite, and a well-planned layout can carve one out of a corner or a spare box room without losing the bedroom entirely. We work out the drainage runs first, since moving a toilet in an interwar house means getting the waste to fall to the stack, then plan the fittings around the available headroom and any sloping ceiling.
In the original family bathroom, often on the smaller side in a UB8 semi, clever layouts make a real difference. A wall-hung basin, a shower over a shorter bath or a compact walk-in enclosure frees up floor space, while good tiling and lighting make the room feel larger than it is. None of this needs planning permission, being internal work, though the electrics are certified under the building regulations.
