Bathroom Renovations in North London
Complete renovations, from wet rooms to family bathrooms, professionally installed and managed entirely in-house.
Our Approach
A space used every day deserves more than a surface-level finish. It deserves substance — the kind you feel without needing to think about it. In a bathroom, where water, moisture and constant use leave no room for shortcuts, that substance makes the difference between something that looks good and something that lasts. It’s the difference between a room that simply photographs well and one that continues to perform quietly, day after day.
At Lucian Bathrooms, that level of quality is not aspirational — it’s established. With over 10 years of hands-on experience, it reflects a way of working refined over time and proven through real projects and long-lasting results. We work in line with current building regulations, using proven materials and up-to-date installation methods that support reliable performance in a space used every day.
What We Build
Our Bathroom Renovation Services
A properly built wet room is more than an open shower space. It requires full tanking, accurate floor falls, correct drainage positioning and complete waterproof protection from floor to ceiling.
We carry out wet room renovations in North London using certified waterproofing systems, sealed membrane detailing, linear drains and carefully calculated gradients to ensure water flows exactly where it should. Every layer beneath the tiles is prepared to prevent movement, moisture penetration or long-term failure — and the wet room tiling itself is set out and installed as part of that complete system.
Underfloor heating, recessed niches, frameless glass panels and flush transitions are integrated during the build stage — not added as afterthoughts. The result is a fully waterproofed space that performs reliably in daily use while maintaining a clean, minimal finish.
We carry out wet room renovations across Hampstead, Highgate, Belsize Park, West Hampstead, Crouch End and Muswell Hill.
Walk-in showers offer a clean, open layout while retaining a defined showering zone. Unlike fully tanked wet rooms, they are typically built around low-profile trays or carefully formed shower bases, combined with frameless glass panels for a seamless finish.
We install walk-in systems with proper tray support, reinforced subfloors, accurate waste positioning and fully sealed junctions to prevent movement or leaks over time. Drainage, plumbing and wall preparation are completed before tiling begins, ensuring the structure behind the tiles is as solid as the surface itself.
Recessed niches, rainfall shower systems, thermostatic controls and flush thresholds are integrated during installation to maintain both practicality and a modern aesthetic. The result is a spacious, easy-access shower area built for daily reliability — the same thinking that sits behind our walk-in shower renovations in North London.

Family bathrooms require careful planning to balance layout, storage and daily practicality. In homes where the space is shared, durability and efficient use of every wall and corner become just as important as visual finish.
We reconfigure layouts where necessary, reposition plumbing and optimise floor space to improve circulation and usability. Wall-hung vanity units, concealed cistern systems and built-in storage solutions are installed with proper structural support and reinforced fixings to support long-term use.
Lighting, ventilation and water pressure are assessed at the planning stage so the finished bathroom functions reliably for multiple users. The result is a well-organised space that remains easy to maintain while delivering a clean, modern appearance, with the layout and storage planned around everyday family use — the same thinking that sits behind our family bathroom renovations in North London.

Ensuite bathrooms require careful planning to maximise comfort within a compact footprint. In many properties, they are formed by converting part of a bedroom, loft or unused space — which means drainage, pipework routing and ventilation must be designed correctly from the outset.
We install ensuites with efficient layouts, concealed pipework and optimised waste positioning to maintain proper flow without compromising surrounding rooms. Wall-hung fixtures, compact basins and walk-in shower systems are integrated to preserve floor space while maintaining structural stability.
Sound insulation, upgraded extraction and discreet lighting are considered during installation so the new ensuite functions independently and reliably within the home. The result is a well-proportioned, fully integrated space that feels cohesive with the rest of the property — the same thinking that sits behind our ensuite bathroom renovations in North London.

Featured North London Bathroom Reviews
The job involved a full overhaul — moving plumbing, repositioning the toilet, bath and sink, building a stud wall for a shower niche, and tiling both the walls and floor. Lucian approached every element with care and precision, from the perfectly mitred tile edges to the beautiful finish throughout. It’s genuinely our dream space.
Having gone through four bathroom renovations in the last 13 years, I can confidently say Lucian’s work stands above the rest. The finish is incredibly clean and his attention to detail is second to none. Me and my wife are extremely happy with the finished product.
You can see the quality in the layers of foundation — from the meticulous levelling and waterproofing to the primer coats. The tiling made me as an OCD person incredibly happy. If you want someone who builds things to last, I cannot recommend Lucian enough.
Lucian completely refurbished my bathroom, and did a fantastic job. He was very thorough and communicative throughout the whole process, and helped me choose the tiles and bathroom suite. I’m incredibly pleased with the final result, and would have no hesitation in recommending Lucian to anyone who wants excellent work.

Everything you need to know about bathroom renovations in North London.
A full bathroom renovation in North London typically starts from £6,000 labour only, with final cost depending on layout changes, property type, preparation work, waterproofing requirements and the level of finish selected. Wet rooms typically start from £8,000 labour only. After a site visit, we provide a clear quotation so you know exactly what is included before work begins.
Most full bathroom renovations take around 2 to 4 weeks, depending on the scope of work. Straightforward replacements are usually quicker, while projects involving layout changes, structural preparation, extensive plumbing adjustments or detailed tiling can take longer. We plan each stage carefully so waterproofing, setting times and installation are carried out properly rather than rushed.
In most cases, planning permission is not required for an internal bathroom renovation in an existing home. However, listed buildings, works forming part of an extension, or other special circumstances can change that. Building regulations approval may still be required where the work affects drainage, electrics, ventilation or structural elements, so we review this during the planning stage and advise accordingly.
Our bathroom renovation service covers the full process from strip-out to final installation. This typically includes removal of the existing bathroom, preparation work, plumbing, electrics, waterproofing, tiling, fitting of sanitaryware and final finishing. Where required, we also plan ventilation improvements, layout adjustments and waste removal so the project is managed properly from start to finish.
Yes. Plumbing, electrical coordination and waterproofing are all handled as part of our complete bathroom renovation service. This allows the whole project to be planned properly from the start, with each stage working together rather than being treated as separate jobs. It also helps maintain consistent standards across preparation, installation and final finish.
Yes. Layout planning is a big part of getting a bathroom right, especially where space is limited or the existing arrangement does not work well. We help with fixture positioning, drainage direction, shower and bath placement, storage planning and overall flow, so the finished bathroom feels practical, balanced and well resolved rather than simply refitted in the same way.
Both options are possible. In some bathrooms, keeping the existing layout is the most sensible route because it reduces unnecessary changes and keeps the project more efficient. In others, reconfiguring the room can improve movement, storage, shower space or the overall feel of the bathroom. We assess that during the site visit and advise on what makes the most sense for the property.
Yes. We are fully insured and work to proper installation standards throughout the project. Where specialist sign-off or certified work is required, that is handled accordingly. The aim is not just to complete the visible parts well, but to make sure the renovation is carried out responsibly and to a standard that performs properly over time.
Yes. After visiting the property and discussing the scope of work, we provide a clear and structured quotation based on the layout, specification and level of preparation required. That way you can see what is included, what the project involves and what standard is being quoted for, rather than trying to compare vague prices that do not reflect the real work involved.
Booking a consultation is simple. You can get in touch by phone or through the contact form on our website to arrange a site visit. During the consultation, we assess the bathroom, discuss your goals, talk through layout and finish options, and advise on the best route for the renovation. From there, we prepare a quotation based on the work required.
