Bathroom installation in Croydon
Interwar semis in Croydon typically have their bathroom in the small original back room, and the choice is almost always between keeping the layout and moving the soil connection. Relocating the WC is what pushes the price up most.

Bathroom installation in Croydon
- Small original bathrooms at the back of interwar semis
- Deciding whether to leave the WC in place or move the soil connection
- Cloakrooms fitted into the space under the stairs
Most interwar semis in the CR postcodes have the bathroom at the back of the first floor, over the kitchen, with the soil stack fixed to the outside rear wall. That stack is often original cast iron, and a refit is the sensible time to replace the section you connect into rather than joining new plastic onto a pipe that may be cracked. If the house has a textured ceiling or old vinyl floor tiles laid before 2000, have them tested before anyone strips them out, because some contain asbestos. Driveways are common on these streets, which makes deliveries much easier, and a skip standing on your own drive needs no council permit. Town centre flats are a different job. Materials come up a shared stair or a lift that may need booking, the rubble goes down the same way, and the building manager usually has a say in when noisy work can happen.

Questions we often get
Do you work in Croydon?
We do. Croydon falls within Croydon, covering the CR0, CR2, SE25, SW16 postcodes, and our engineers are out across Greater London from our Fulham office every day.
Is it possible to put the toilet on the opposite side of the room?
It is, but no other choice changes the price as much, since the soil connection has to move with it. On a tight budget, leave the WC where it is and rearrange the rest around it. You get more bathroom for your money that way.
Our bathroom and separate toilet are side by side. Can they become one room?
In a lot of 1930s semis, yes, and it is one of the most common changes people make. The wall between them is usually a lightweight partition, but we check before anything comes down. The WC can often stay on its existing soil connection, which keeps costs sensible, and the extra floor space makes room for a proper shower or a longer bath. The trade-off is losing a separate toilet, which matters more in a busy family house.
How much will it cost?
Before an engineer starts, you are given a price for the job. Should something hidden in a wall change what is needed, we stop and discuss it with you first, instead of pressing on and sending the bill later.
