Kitchens, bathrooms and decorating in Tufnell Park
Tufnell Park is Victorian terraces and larger houses around Tufnell Park Road, toward Dartmouth Park and toward Holloway. A high proportion of conversions; family houses remain on some of the broader roads. The stock is closer to Kentish Town than to Highgate Village: rear returns, half-landing bathrooms, timber floors that move. The neighbourhood name covers Islington and Camden streets. We take on conversion kitchens and bathrooms, light refurbishment and occupied decorating once the address has named the council.

The housing in Tufnell Park
Building stock, from the inside
The villa plan repeats: a side entrance on a half-landing stair, two rooms deep on each floor, and a two-storey closet wing at the back. Conversions have taken that plan and pushed a kitchen into whatever room had a rear wall — often the closet wing, sometimes a former bedroom with no waste anywhere near it. Bathrooms cluster on the half-landings, one above the other, feeding a single external stack. Cornices, ceiling roses, four-panel doors and softwood boards survive in patches; so do the later partitions that created the flats. Any new layout is checked against the stack, the neighbour's ceiling below and what the lease actually permits.

A single kitchen or bathroom in Tufnell Park can often be sequenced around you. A whole-flat programme is usually cleaner if you decant. Occupation, access and conversion streets are settled at survey.
Both. We confirm the borough from the address before applying for licences.
A half-landing or rear-return room in a conversion, often with a long run to the stack. Layout follows the drainage, not the other way round.
Yes. Fully insured.
Yes. Rooms are sequenced, with dust control, as on our painting service.
Usually improved rather than moved. A kitchen in a former bedroom has no original waste and no natural extract path, so the questions are where the waste can reach a stack at a workable fall, where ducting can leave the building without landing on a controlled elevation, and how much noise the floor passes to the flat below. We answer those before drawing units.
They stay, unless they are beyond repair. In these villas the plaster mouldings are usually the only original feature the conversion left intact, so they are protected, cleaned back where paint has clogged the profile, and made good in lime or fibrous plaster rather than filled with a modern compound. Where a section is missing we say what can be matched and what cannot.
The rear wall and the stack, not a former bedroom's wishful drainage. The paired villas on Tufnell Park Road, Dalmeny Avenue, Anson Road and Carleton Road have a side entrance on a half-landing stair, two rooms deep, and a two-storey closet wing at the back. Conversions have pushed a kitchen into whichever room had a rear wall — often that wing. We survey the existing waste, the neighbour's ceiling below and what the lease permits before drawing units. Moving the kitchen into a bedroom with no waste nearby is a different problem; improving the wing is usually the better instruction.
