This Highgate bathroom renovation is a complete transformation project delivered by TNG Services, combining structural rebuilding, precision plumbing, and high-end finishing. From exposed subfloor to a luxury modern bathroom, every stage was executed with attention to detail and long-term durability in mind.
Starting from Scratch: Strip-Out and Structural Preparation
The project began with a full strip-out of the existing bathroom. Once all fixtures and finishes were removed, the underlying structure revealed uneven flooring and outdated plumbing systems.
We rebuilt the subfloor to create a perfectly stable and level base — a critical step for achieving a flawless tiled finish and ensuring proper drainage throughout the space.

At this stage, all pipework was exposed and redesigned to suit the new layout, allowing for a more efficient and modern bathroom configuration.
Rebuild Phase: Framing, Boarding and Concealed Systems
The walls were reconstructed using moisture-resistant backer boards designed specifically for wet environments. A custom-built framework was created to house concealed plumbing systems and maximise usable space.
The installation included a Geberit concealed cistern system for the wall-hung toilet, providing both structural strength and a clean, minimalist appearance.
Integrated wall niches were built into the structure, offering practical storage while maintaining a seamless design.
All plumbing connections were pressure-tested before closing the walls, ensuring long-term reliability and eliminating the risk of hidden leaks.
Walk-In Shower Installation with Linear Drain
A key feature of this renovation is the walk-in shower with a precisely installed linear floor drain. Achieving the correct fall is essential in this type of installation, and careful levelling ensured efficient water flow without compromising tile alignment.
Large-format tiles were cut and laid with precision to maintain consistent lines across both walls and floors, while also directing water naturally towards the drainage channel.
The result is a clean, modern shower area with minimal visual interruption and maximum functionality.
Tiling and Finishing: Clean Lines and Precision Work
The tiling phase focused on accuracy and consistency. Every joint, edge, and transition was carefully aligned to create a uniform and high-end finish.
The neutral tone of the tiles enhances the sense of space, while the concealed elements keep the design uncluttered and modern.
Attention to detail during this stage is what separates a standard installation from a premium result — and this project reflects that difference throughout.
Final Installation: Modern Design Meets Functionality
The completed bathroom features a floating vanity unit with a countertop basin, paired with a large illuminated mirror that adds both practicality and visual impact.
The wall-hung toilet enhances the open feel of the space, while the walk-in shower with frameless glass enclosure creates a seamless, contemporary look.
Integrated lighting within the wall niches adds a subtle design feature while providing useful storage.
The Result: A High-End Bathroom Built to Last
This Highgate renovation demonstrates how a full rebuild, when executed correctly, can completely transform both the functionality and appearance of a bathroom.
By combining structural expertise, precision plumbing, and careful finishing, TNG Services delivered a space that is not only visually striking but built for long-term performance.
