Bathroom Fitting in Kensal Green & Kensal Rise
Complete bathrooms, en-suites and wet rooms — tanked and waterproofed correctly, so you are not revisiting it in three years.
The failure in most bathrooms is not visible: tanking skipped behind the tiles, a shower tray bedded badly, or waste pipework without enough fall. We tank wet areas properly, pressure-test before tiling, and set falls correctly, because the cost of getting this wrong is ripping out a finished room.
Bathroom Fitting in Kensal Green & Kensal Rise: what to know locally
Victorian terraces, many in multiple occupation or converted to flats, with larger housing towards Kensal Rise and Queen's Park fringes.
A mix of owner-occupier renovation and landlord work. The Victorian terraces take side return and rear extensions well, and loft conversions are common across the whole area given the roof profiles.
Planning authority: Brent Council. Brent has conservation areas covering parts of Kensal Rise and Queen's Park, and operates additional HMO licensing. Terraced loft conversions need party wall notices to both neighbours.
What the work covers
- Strip-out and waste removal
- First fix plumbing and new waste runs
- Tanking and waterproofing to wet areas
- Underfloor heating and towel rails
- Full tiling, floor and wall
- Sanitaryware, screens and extraction
What it costs
A full bathroom refit is typically £6,500 to £12,000 depending on sanitaryware, tiling and whether the layout moves. A wet room with a formed floor costs more than a tray.

Bathroom Fitting in Kensal Green & Kensal Rise — questions
Do you cover Kensal Green & Kensal Rise?
Yes — Kensal Green & Kensal Rise and the NW10, NW6 postcodes are part of our core working area, along with Wembley, Shepherd's Bush, Harrow. Being local means a site visit within days rather than weeks.
Which council handles planning for Kensal Green & Kensal Rise?
Brent Council. Brent has conservation areas covering parts of Kensal Rise and Queen's Park, and operates additional HMO licensing. Terraced loft conversions need party wall notices to both neighbours.
How long does a bathroom take?
Usually two to three weeks for a full refit. Tanking and tile adhesive both need curing time and rushing those is exactly how a bathroom fails early.
Can you move the toilet?
Often, but it depends on reaching the soil stack with adequate fall. Where that is not possible a macerator is an option, though we would rather re-route the waste where the building allows it.
What is tanking and do I need it?
A waterproof membrane applied behind the tiles in wet areas. Tiles and grout are not waterproof on their own. In a shower enclosure or wet room it is essential, and we do it as standard.
