GS Renovation designs and builds kitchens across Wapping, from warehouse-conversion flats with exposed brick to sleek new-build apartments overlooking the Docklands. With over 30 years of experience in E1 and across Tower Hamlets, we handle the cabinetry, worktops, plumbing, electrics and any structural work as a single, coordinated project, tailored to riverside living.
Open-plan kitchen-diners in Wapping flats
A popular Wapping kitchen project opens the cooking space into the living area to create one bright, sociable kitchen-diner that suits open, warehouse-style living. Where the dividing wall is load-bearing, we install a steel beam sized by a structural engineer and signed off by building control, often serving a party wall notice where the wall backs onto a neighbouring flat. The result feels generous and flooded with light.
We fit quality units, quartz, granite or composite worktops, integrated appliances and layered lighting, planning everything around the fixed positions of drainage, risers and structural columns common in conversions. Because a knock-through in a leasehold flat needs the freeholder's licence to alter and managing-agent sign-off, we handle that coordination alongside the building control notice, so your new E1 kitchen is delivered cleanly, safely and fully compliant.
Bespoke kitchens for Wapping riverside homes
The industrial character of a Wapping conversion, exposed brick, steel and timber, suits kitchens that either lean into that raw aesthetic or contrast it with sleek, handleless cabinetry. We design bespoke and fitted kitchens to suit the flat, whether that means built-in units that follow an awkward wall of a former warehouse or a crisp island beneath tall windows framing the river and the wharves beyond.
Kitchen electrics and any new circuits are notifiable under building regulations, and we certify that work as standard. No planning permission is needed for a kitchen inside your flat, but the freeholder's consent and building rules still apply, especially around wet works and extraction routed through shared risers. From design to the final tiled splashback and under-cabinet lighting, one team keeps the whole fit-out tidy and on time.
