Highland Drive, Hemel Hempstead HP3

Bathroom Installations & Complete Interior Finishing — End of Terrace Property


Transforming Two Floors of a Family Home With Modern, High-Quality Bathrooms

Some projects are about speed. Others are about precision. This one required both.

This family home on Highland Drive, Hemel Hempstead HP3 needed two completely new bathrooms — each designed for modern daily living, engineered for durability, and finished to an exceptional standard.

What made this project unique was the tight timeframe: the second-floor bathroom delivered in 2 weeks, and the larger first-floor shower room completed in just 3 weeks — without ever compromising on detail.

Sable Projects managed every trade, every stage, and every detail.

The Homeowner’s Challenge

This home needed:

  • Two fully finished bathrooms

  • Family-friendly layouts

  • Durable plumbing with long-term reliability

  • Modern, elegant finishes

  • Tight project sequencing to minimise disruption

  • Smart storage in compact spaces

The homeowners wanted spaces that felt bigger, looked modern, and worked perfectly, built without the stress of managing multiple trades.

They needed a contractor who could take ownership from start to finish.

They needed Sable Projects.


Our Role: The Guide

We led the way with:

  • Clear design planning

  • Efficient project sequencing

  • In-house multi-trade management

  • Fast communication

  • Premium finishing across both floors

Our goal was to give the homeowners two spaces they could use and enjoy immediately — with zero compromise on quality.


Our 3-Step Plan

1️⃣ Design & Planning — Build the Vision

Working with the homeowner, we finalised:

  • Layout optimisation for both floors

  • Bespoke vanity unit designs

  • Brassware, tiling, and lighting selections

  • Build schedule across plumbing, electrics, joinery, tiling, and decorating

Goal: Maximise space, simplify daily use, and elevate the home’s overall feel.

2️⃣ First Fix — Build the Foundation

We installed:

  • Geberit Mapress copper pipework throughout

  • Concealed hot/cold feeds and waste routes

  • Structural supports for wall-hung basins, WCs, and vanities

  • Electrical feeds for lighting, mirrors, and shaver sockets

  • Full waterproofing preparation for both spaces

This ensured strong, leak-free plumbing and clean final finishes.


3️⃣ Second Fix & Finishing — Bring It to Life

We completed:

  • Installation of baths, showers, wall-hung WCs & basins

  • Custom vanity units tailored to each room

  • Full wall & floor tiling with precision mitres

  • Lighting, mirrors, extractor fans, accessories

  • Plastering, priming, painting & detail finishing

In just five weeks, both spaces were ready for daily use — clean, modern, and built to last.
