Bathroom Renovations in East London

Custom bathroom renovations — wall and floor tiling, walk-in showers and vanities, fitted by one team.

A bathroom renovation touches plumbing, waterproofing, tiling, glass and joinery — and it only takes one of those done badly for water to end up where it shouldn't. We renovate bathrooms across East London as one project: stripped back, waterproofed, tiled, and fitted out with showers, vanities and storage.

Workmanship + manufacturer

Most of our bathroom work is full-height tiling with a walk-in shower behind a glass door, a vanity unit, and a mirror cabinet above it. Large-format marble-look tiles are a popular choice — they make a small bathroom feel bigger and leave fewer grout lines to keep clean.

The part you never see matters most. Showers are waterproofed and the floor is laid to fall towards the drain before a single tile goes down, because a leaking shower usually shows up months later as damp in the wall next door.

Bathrooms pair naturally with ceiling work — moisture-resistant PVC ceilings and cornices finish the room properly — and with new flooring in the passage outside.

Our Approach

Why Homeowners Choose Elite Home Finishes

Waterproofing and floor falls are done properly before tiling — the hidden work that decides whether a shower leaks.

Tiling, shower glass, vanity and ceiling are handled by one team, so there are no gaps between trades for problems to fall into.

We plan the tile layout before cutting, so cuts land in corners and behind fittings rather than in the middle of a wall.

Your Options

Options & Finishes to Choose From

A

Full renovation

Everything stripped back to the walls and floor, then waterproofed, re-tiled and refitted with new sanitaryware and storage.

B

Shower conversion

An old bath or cramped cubicle replaced with a tiled walk-in shower behind a glass door or fixed screen.

C

Vanity & storage upgrade

New vanity unit, basin and mirror cabinet fitted to the space you have, without a full re-tile.

D

Large-format tiling

Big marble-look or plain wall and floor tiles with minimal grout lines — brighter, easier to clean, and larger-looking.

Planning Your Project

What Affects Cost & Timeline

  • Scope — a full strip-out and re-tile costs more than a vanity or shower upgrade on existing tiles.
  • Tile choice — large-format and premium tiles cost more per m² and take more care to lay flat.
  • Plumbing changes — moving the shower, toilet or basin adds plumbing work.
  • Glass — frameless doors and custom screens cost more than standard framed units.
  • Condition behind the tiles — damp or damaged walls found during strip-out must be repaired first.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

It depends on the scope. A vanity or shower upgrade is quick, while a full strip-out and re-tile takes longer because waterproofing and tile adhesive need time to cure. We give you a realistic timeline with your quote.
