Bathroom Renovation in Battersea

Battersea's Victorian and Edwardian homes contain bathrooms that range from charming period originals to poorly executed twentieth-century additions. SOM Development transforms these spaces into beautifully finished, fully waterproofed bathrooms that combine contemporary comfort with character appropriate to the SW11 streetscape.

Many Battersea terraces have a single family bathroom on the first floor, often awkwardly positioned around chimney breasts and soil stacks. We reconfigure these rooms to maximise usable floor area, replacing bulky fittings with wall-hung sanitaryware, walk-in showers with frameless glass screens, and bespoke vanity units that provide generous storage without consuming floor space.

En-suite bathrooms are a popular addition in Battersea's larger properties, particularly in the Edwardian houses near Battersea Park and the between-the-commons streets. We carve these from existing bedroom space or repurpose dressing rooms, ensuring the en-suite feels like a luxurious retreat rather than a squeezed-in afterthought. Underfloor heating, heated towel rails, and demisting mirrors are standard in our specifications.

Every Battersea bathroom renovation includes a comprehensive waterproofing system—tanked walls and floors tested before tiling begins—and a full electrical certification to BS 7671 standards. We leave nothing to chance in the room where water and electricity must coexist safely.

Battersea's housing stock ranges from compact Victorian terraces to substantial Edwardian family homes, each presenting different bathroom renovation challenges. The terraces typically have a single shared bathroom that must serve the entire household, while the larger properties often have space for multiple bathrooms and en-suites.

A well-designed bathroom significantly enhances a Battersea property's appeal. In the competitive SW11 market, buyers expect modern, well-finished bathrooms, and a renovation that delivers both style and quality is a sound investment.
