Luxury bathroom and wet-room refurbishment in Wapping. Trusted, professional, 30+ years' hands-on experience.
GS Renovation creates bathrooms, en-suites and wet rooms throughout Wapping, working in warehouse-conversion flats and new-build riverside apartments across E1. With over 30 years of experience in Tower Hamlets, we deliver fully waterproofed, beautifully finished bathrooms, managing the tanking, drainage, ventilation, tiling and heating so nothing is left to chance in a flat above other homes.

In a flat above other homes, watertight waterproofing is not optional, it is essential. Before a single tile goes on, we tank the walls and floor of every Wapping bathroom and wet room, so no moisture reaches the flat below or the building structure. This matters especially in older warehouse conversions, where floors may be timber and a leak could damage a neighbour's ceiling and strain relations across the block.
Drainage and ventilation take real planning in a converted or purpose-built flat, where waste often has to run to fixed soil stacks and extraction to existing routes. We set falls correctly, upgrade ventilation to prevent damp and condensation, and install underfloor heating and heated rails for comfort. No planning permission is needed inside your flat, but new electrics are certified under building regulations and the freeholder's consent is arranged first.
Space is often tight in Wapping flats, so we design clever, space-saving layouts, walk-in showers, wall-hung basins and concealed cisterns that make a compact bathroom feel larger. Where a bedroom can spare a corner, we add an en-suite, threading the drainage and ventilation back to existing services. In a generous warehouse conversion with volume to spare, an open wet room can become a genuine feature of the home.
Sound and waterproofing between flats guide every decision, so we isolate pipework to reduce noise and tank thoroughly to protect the homes around you. We tile to a high standard, from large-format porcelain to mosaic detailing, and finish with considered lighting and heating. Throughout, we work to the building's management rules and keep communal areas clean, delivering an E1 bathroom that performs perfectly and looks the part for years.
Wapping owners choose GS Renovation for bathrooms because we treat waterproofing in a flat above others as non-negotiable, tanking thoroughly and protecting the homes below. We coordinate drainage, ventilation and certified electrics, arrange freeholder consent, and respect the block's rules. The result is a watertight, well-finished bathroom, backed by more than 30 years across Tower Hamlets.
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.
Splendid job on our new kitchen refurb, including new flooring, moving the services, installing RSJ and preparing space for new back doors… George was always friendly, communicative and has an excellent attention to detail, ensuring everything is finished to a high standard.
Giorgio is an excellent and intelligent workman, and with very reasonable prices!… He paid a lot of attention to detail that is not common at all, and the final result was immaculate. Highly recommended!

Yes. Bathroom electrics in Wapping 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.
Yes. A large share of Wapping's homes are warehouse-conversion and new-build properties, and we renovate them regularly. We plan each bathroom renovation around their particular characteristics, such as concrete or steel frames, building-management rules and modern services, so the result suits the building and meets building control.
Thorough tanking is the answer. We apply a full waterproof membrane to the walls and floor before tiling, seal around every pipe and drain, and set the falls so water always runs to waste. In older warehouse conversions with timber floors we take particular care. This protects the flat below, the building structure and your relationship with the neighbours, and satisfies building regulations.
