Renovation and Bathroom Refit in Bahçeşehir Phase 1

Renovation and Bathroom Refit in Bahçeşehir Phase 1

The blocks of Phase 1 are sound and well kept, and that is part of what holds the area's value. Inside the flats, though, the equipment — plumbing, electrical circuits, wet-area waterproofing — is nearing the end of its service life. So the work we are asked for here is rarely about changing visible surfaces; it is about renewing the system underneath and building a new flat on top of it. Erdağ Yapı Dekorasyon carries out flat, villa and workplace renovation in Phase 1 on a turnkey basis.

The Right Order: What You Cannot See Comes First

In flats of this age, putting the budget in the right order matters more than the amount spent. First come the hidden items: plumbing, electrical circuits and waterproofing in the wet areas. Old pipework and an undersized consumer unit left under a new kitchen or new tiling mean stripping the whole job out at the first fault. Second come windows and thermal insulation, and third the kitchen, bathroom and finishes. At the survey we go through this order with you and, if the budget will not stretch to everything, say plainly which item can wait.

Bathroom Refit

A bathroom is the most technical room in the home: water, electrics, waterproofing and finishes meet in a few square metres. We start with strip-out and plumbing, then apply waterproofing continuously across the floor and shower area, including corners and pipe penetrations, and screed the floor to fall towards the drain. For the final finish we weigh up tiles, Italian decorative plaster or, in suitable areas, wallpaper. Water reaching the flat below is the most common complaint in this building stock, which is why we treat waterproofing as a stage in its own right.

Garden-Level Flats and Damp

Garden-level flats are among the most sought-after homes in Phase 1, and they are also where most reports of damp and mould along the skirting come from. Painting over it is not a lasting fix. We find the cause first: ground moisture, inadequate insulation, poor ventilation or a plumbing leak. Once the cause is dealt with, we renew the surface with suitable materials.

How We Work and Estate Rules

Working inside an estate has its own rules: hours for noisy work, use of the lift and how rubble is removed. We agree these with the management at the start and build the schedule around them. We cover shared areas and the lift, clear rubble rather than letting it pile up, and never use gardens or landscaped areas as a material store. We provide a workmanship guarantee on our work.

Let us walk through the flat, itemise the scope and give you a written quote; the survey is free. See also our Bahçeşehir renovation and bathroom renovation pages.
