The housing stock
What Kensington & Chelsea bathrooms
tend to throw up.
This is the most constrained borough we work in and the least forgiving of finish. Listed status and conservation coverage are widespread, so alterations, extract terminations and external pipework all need checking before design. Specifications run to natural stone, book-matched slabs and bespoke joinery, and those materials expose any weakness in substrate preparation. A large-format stone slab needs a genuinely flat wall — one made flat with adhesive will telegraph every lipped joint within a year.

Kensington & Chelsea
Questions we are
asked most.
Do you cover all of Kensington & Chelsea?
Yes, across SW3, SW7, W8, W11 and the surrounding streets. We work across Greater London only, which means we can get back to a job quickly if you need us.
How quickly can you survey a property in Kensington & Chelsea?
Usually within one working day of your enquiry. The survey takes about forty-five minutes and there is no charge and no obligation.
Do you deal with the freeholder or managing agent?
We can. In converted flats and mansion blocks, consent is often needed before waste runs are altered. We will tell you at survey whether that applies and what is likely to be required.
