Real reviews from our satisfied customers.
“We had an excellent experience working with Buildaway. Cormac was incredibly easy to work with, and gave helpful advice. The finished job was neat, professional and completed efficiently. We'd definitely recommend and would use them again!”
Roisin Lawrence
“The team turned up when they said they would and kept the house tidy each day, which made a big difference while we were living in the property during the works. The quality of the finish is excellent. The bathroom looks fantastic and the bedrooms feel completely refreshed. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Cormac and the Buildaway team…”
Helen Sivyer
“We’ve had a genuinely fantastic experience with Buildaway. Cormac was ultra responsive and excellent at communicating with us throughout our project. The quality of the work was excellent - so much so, that we extended our project by adding a range of other building renovations to our original ask, each completed with care and precision…”
Kiran Collier
“A great transformation of my bathroom into something modern and sleek. Cormac was professional to work with from the start and was very helpful in taking my ideas and sourcing products to fit the space and look aesthetically pleasing. I felt confident in working with the company as I could ask questions and I was also pleased to get suggestions and ideas…”
Vera Jajechnyk
“I was recommended Buildaway by a colleague as I was impressed by the work they had done for my colleague. From the moment I contacted Cormac, I knew I was in good hands. He was incredibly friendly and accommodating right from the start. The very next day, he was at my property, taking measurements and discussing design options. What really impressed me was Cormac's honesty…”
Nana A.
“Greg's attention to detail and dedication elevated both the experience and the result - he certainly knows his way around a tile. In addition to the bathroom refit, Cormac replaced all the plastic switches, sockets and pull-cords in the house with brushed brass. Highly recommended and will certainly work with the Buildaway team again…”

Frequently Asked Questions
Your questions about bathroom renovations in Highbury, answered.
How much does a bathroom renovation cost in Highbury?
Buildaway prices bathroom renovation in Highbury from survey, not from a rate card. As a working guide across N5: £6,000–£8,000 for a suite swap and partial tiling, £8,000–£12,000 for a full strip-out and rebuild, £20,000+ where wet rooms, underfloor heating or feature stone are involved. The written quote is fixed before any work starts.
How long does a bathroom renovation take in Highbury?
Most Buildaway bathroom projects around Highbury Fields and Highbury Barn complete inside 2 to 3 weeks. A straight suite replacement can be quicker; moving the soil stack or forming a wet room adds time because the falls and tanking must be right before tiling. We confirm the Highbury programme in writing alongside the quote.
Do I need planning permission for a bathroom renovation in Highbury?
Usually not - replacing a bathroom in Highbury is normally permitted development. Building Regulations still apply to wiring, extraction and waste, and if you are leasehold in N5 your freeholder or managing agent will want notice. Where a property is listed, Islington Council approval can be required for anything touching original fabric. Buildaway handles the checks.
Do Buildaway bathroom fitters handle both design and installation in Highbury?
We do both. A Highbury bathroom from Buildaway starts with a survey and a design that accounts for your actual drainage and services, then the same team builds it. Because our plumbers, tilers and electricians are in-house, nothing falls between trades - a common failure point on N5 projects run by separate contractors.
Are your bathroom fitters local to Highbury?
We work throughout Highbury and neighbouring areas every week. Buildaway's fitters know N5 property well: the period conversions near Highbury Fields and Highbury Barn, the layouts that repeat street to street, and the quirks that only show up once the tiles come off. Being genuinely local means we quote from experience rather than guesswork.
What does a small bathroom cost to renovate in Highbury?
Expect roughly £6,000–£8,000 for a small Highbury bathroom or en-suite. Cost is driven far more by whether the suite moves than by floor area - keeping the drainage where it is saves considerably. Buildaway surveys the room around Highbury Fields and Highbury Barn and confirms a fixed figure in writing.
