Bathroom Renovation Specialists in Worsley and Swinton

Bathroom Renovators in Worsley and Swinton - Builders Squad Ltd

Many of the bathrooms we renovate across Worsley, Swinton, and Pendlebury have not been properly updated since the property was built. The suite may have been swapped at some point, but the pipework behind the panels is original, the walls have no waterproof membrane, and damp has been working its way through the plaster for years. A cosmetic update does nothing to fix that. A full renovation does.

Builders Squad Ltd carries out complete bathroom renovations across the Worsley and Swinton area, including M27 and M28 postcodes. Our team strips the existing bathroom back to the bare structure, assesses and treats the substrate, replumbs where the existing system needs it, applies tanking membranes to all wet zones, and builds the new bathroom from the ground up. We handle every trade in-house - plumbing, electrics, tiling, plastering, damp proofing, and carpentry.

Renovation Challenges in Post-War Worsley and Swinton Properties

The residential estates built across Swinton, Pendlebury, and the eastern side of Worsley between the 1930s and 1970s share a set of renovation challenges that come up repeatedly in our work.

Ageing pipework. Original copper supply feeds and cast-iron waste pipes have often been patched over the decades with a mix of materials. A full renovation is the right time to replace the lot with a clean, modern system. This prevents leaks and improves water pressure.

No waterproofing behind tiles. Bathrooms fitted before the 1990s rarely had tanking membranes. Tiles were stuck directly onto plaster, and over time moisture has tracked through the wall. We apply liquid-applied tanking to every wet zone before any tiles go up.

Concrete and screed floors. Post-war semis often have solid concrete subfloors that have settled unevenly over the decades. We level these before tiling - without it, large-format tiles will crack at the edges.

Dated layouts. Bathrooms in 1950s and 1960s properties were built small and rarely updated. A renovation is the opportunity to make better use of the available space - repositioning fixtures, widening doorways, or removing boxed-in pipework that no longer needs to be there.
