Bathroom Fitting Tip for Putney Homeowners
Putney's larger Victorian and Edwardian houses often have multiple bathrooms to renovate — a family bathroom, master en-suite, and sometimes a downstairs cloakroom. Doing all of them in one project saves money because the plumber and electrician are already on site, and we can order fixtures in bulk. If the property has an old gravity-fed hot water system, a bathroom renovation is the ideal time to upgrade to an unvented cylinder that delivers mains-pressure hot water to every outlet.
What Putney bathroom renovations typically involve
Three patterns cover most of what we do in SW15. Master en-suite renovations on the larger Edwardian houses around Putney Hill and Carlton Drive are the most frequent. Specifications include double vanities, walk-in showers (frameless glass with rainshower head), freestanding baths from Drummonds or The Water Monopoly, and underfloor heating throughout. Cost is £18,000-£35,000 for a master en-suite at this specification, and build time is 4-6 weeks. Family bathroom renovations are the second pattern, typically combined with a master en-suite project on the same visit. Generous proportions on the older Putney houses suit a separate bath and shower layout with twin basins, usable for a family of four without queuing. Cost is £12,000-£22,000 per family bathroom at premium specification. Downstairs cloakroom additions are the third common job, often added during a kitchen extension or full renovation. Standard scope is a wall-hung WC, basin with vanity, full waterproofing, and tiling. Cost is £4,500-£8,500. Build time 2-3 weeks. We coordinate plumbing, electrics, waterproofing, tiling, and decoration as a single trade package. You don't manage four contractors trying to share a small bathroom.
Why we replumb the hot water system during Putney bathrooms
Many Putney Victorian and Edwardian properties still run on a gravity-fed hot water system: a cold water tank in the loft feeds a hot water cylinder, which feeds the taps. The pressure to a first-floor or second-floor bathroom is often poor, and shower performance is the most common complaint. During a bathroom renovation, the wall is open and the plumbing is accessible. This is the ideal time to upgrade to an unvented cylinder system or a modern combi boiler. An unvented cylinder runs at mains pressure and delivers strong flow to every outlet simultaneously, which matters if you're running a shower while someone else uses a basin. A combi boiler eliminates the cylinder and tank entirely, saving cupboard space. The upgrade typically costs £2,500-£4,500 for an unvented cylinder including pressure-reducing valve, expansion vessel, and tundish, or £2,800-£3,800 for a combi boiler. Both options require the original cold water tank to be decommissioned and the loft pipework to be capped. Building Regulations sign-off applies to unvented cylinders (BS 7593 commissioning standard) and we handle the certification through our Gas Safe registered engineer. Doing this work during a bathroom renovation rather than as a separate project saves £800-£1,500 in site setup costs and avoids two periods of disruption.
Working in SW15 — councils, planning, and access
Putney falls under Wandsworth Council, one of London's faster planning authorities. Internal bathroom renovations usually don't need planning permission, but Building Regulations sign-off applies for the electrical work (BS 7671 with notification of notifiable work) and for any hot water system upgrade. We handle the Building Control submission and the inspections as part of every project, and the completion certificate is delivered at handover. Properties within the Putney Embankment, Oxford Road, or Wandsworth Park conservation areas have additional requirements only if external alterations are involved (changing window position to add ventilation, modifying external walls). Internal-only renovations don't trigger conservation review. For listed buildings (Grade II is most common in SW15), Listed Building Consent is required for any change to original features including original sash windows, fireplaces, or panelled doors that the bathroom layout might affect. We apply for consent before work starts. Access on Putney's terraced streets sometimes needs a controlled parking permit for waste skips and contractor vehicles, typically £40-£80 per week from Wandsworth. We arrange these as part of the project. For larger renovations spanning multiple bathrooms, we use a single materials delivery slot rather than multiple journeys to minimise neighbour disruption. Our office on Limes Avenue (SE20) is 25 minutes from most Putney properties for follow-up visits and snag fixes.

Frequently Asked Questions
- How much does a Putney bathroom renovation cost?
- A standard family bathroom in SW15 runs £12,000-£22,000 at premium specification (Duravit sanitaryware, Crosswater brassware, large-format porcelain tiles, underfloor heating). A master en-suite at higher specification (freestanding bath, walk-in shower, double vanity) runs £18,000-£35,000. A downstairs cloakroom addition is £4,500-£8,500. We provide a fixed-price contract after a site visit. The price doesn't change unless you change the specification, and we don't add margin for unforeseen plumbing problems. If we miss something on the survey, that's our problem, not yours.
- How long does a Putney bathroom take?
- Three to six weeks for a single bathroom depending on specification and scope. Schedule is roughly: week 1 strip-out and structural work, week 2 first-fix plumbing and electrics, week 3 waterproofing and tiling, week 4 second-fix and finishes. Add a week for a hot water system upgrade or two weeks for combined family bathroom plus master en-suite. We provide a programme of works at the contract stage and photo updates throughout the build throughout. Bathroom renovations across South London since 2020 include a strong record of finishing within the original schedule.
- Should I upgrade the boiler when I renovate my Putney bathroom?
- Almost always yes. Putney Victorian and Edwardian properties typically run on gravity-fed hot water systems with poor shower pressure and outdated efficiency. During a bathroom renovation the walls are already open and the plumbing is accessible, which makes the upgrade dramatically cheaper than a separate project. Cost £2,500-£4,500 for an unvented cylinder or £2,800-£3,800 for a combi boiler, against an extra £800-£1,500 if done separately. All work is signed off under Building Regulations BS 7593 and certified by our Gas Safe registered engineer.
- Why hire All Well for a Putney bathroom?
- Three reasons. First, single-trade coordination: plumbing, electrics, waterproofing, tiling, and decoration handled by one team rather than four contractors. Second, fixed-price contracts: renovations since 2020 means we price accurately and absorb our own surprises. Third, full accreditation: NICEIC for electrical (BS 7671), Gas Safe registered for boiler work, and Building Control sign-off included on every project. 57 verified Google reviews averaging 4.5/5. Office on Limes Avenue, SE20, close enough for same-day surveys and quick post-completion follow-up.
