Expert bathroom renovation services in Hampstead, NW3. Trusted by homeowners across London Borough of Camden.
Hampstead's substantial Edwardian villas and period homes often feature bathrooms that retain original proportions but suffer from decades of outdated fittings and poor modernisation. SOM Development specialises in restoring these rooms to their full potential, combining generous Edwardian spatial planning with contemporary luxury finishes and modern plumbing technology.
Properties along Arkwright Road, Downshire Hill, and the streets surrounding the Heath frequently have large principal bathrooms with high ceilings and original windows. We design around these assets, positioning freestanding baths to exploit natural light, installing walk-in rainfall showers behind frameless glass screens, and using the generous ceiling height to accommodate dramatic pendant lighting or architectural skylights.
Many Hampstead homes also have smaller secondary bathrooms and cloakrooms that need intelligent design to maximise limited space. We use wall-hung sanitaryware, bespoke fitted storage, and reflective surfaces to create the impression of space while maintaining the period character that Hampstead homeowners value.
Our Hampstead bathroom projects are delivered with the meticulous attention to detail that these exceptional properties demand. Tile layouts are planned to the millimetre, brassware is precisely aligned, and every joint and junction is finished to the highest standard.
Hampstead's Edwardian villas typically have more generous bathroom spaces than Victorian terraces, but they present their own challenges. Original lead pipework, asbestos in ceiling cavities, and timber floors requiring careful waterproofing are common issues. The Hampstead Conservation Area also means that any external alterations—such as new soil-pipe routes or ventilation outlets—must be sensitively handled.
The investment in a quality bathroom renovation is well justified in Hampstead, where buyers expect beautifully finished bathrooms that complement the character and scale of these impressive homes.
“SOM transformed our tired 1970s bathroom into a stunning space with a freestanding copper bath, walk-in shower, and heated Carrara marble floor. It feels like a luxury hotel but in our own Hampstead home. The craftsmanship is superb.”

Yes, and Hampstead's generous bathroom proportions make freestanding baths a natural choice. We reinforce timber floors where necessary and install concealed pipework to maintain a clean, elegant aesthetic around the bath.
We replace original lead and iron pipework with modern copper or plastic systems during the renovation. This improves water quality, pressure, and reliability while eliminating the risk of lead contamination.
Absolutely. We commission a professional asbestos survey before any demolition work in properties built before 1999. If asbestos is found, we arrange licensed removal before proceeding with the renovation.
