Hello! I'm just wondering if anyone has information on who owns the empty property, Kenro Press? I've seen online that whoever owns it have asked for planning permission to change it to a residence, rather than business (February this year), but wondering if anyone knows more? 

Thanks in advance :). 

Hi all,

My partner and I are the new owners of the shop. We have known and admired it for many years, and thought it would be an amazing place for us to live. 

It has been left empty and has been neglected for a very long time. So there is a lot of work to be done. 

We plan to fully restore the shop front, all original features and fix all the issues the building has. And turn it into our home. 

Really excited for it all to begin.

: )

If you have any questions please feel free to private message me.

thanks

I often walk past 'Kenro Press' and think it looks very sad and negleted.

I wonder when it was last a viable business - tried googling it but nothing much came up

Great to hear it is being brought back to life, perhaps a pity it will not be a new usefull retail premises.

Lots of work needed so good luck with your renovation

    • You'd need to get a proper quote (or three) for instance removing a cast iron bath is a very different job from removing an acrylic one. Again what pipe work will be being joined into - matching old imperial pipes with modern metric ones is different from like to like, as is dealing with a copper or an iron distribution system. The amount (area) of retiling required is an issue, as will be the state of the wall behind the tiles. It may of course all be very plain sailing, or not. Have a first look at plumber recommendations on the relevant pages on this site. If it's all easy then 3 days work may be sufficient. But it could be a week if there are snags. 
    • Hi. Can anyone suggest a plumber for the job below? Replace bath tub with a shower enclosure, putting pipes to showerhead behind wall, re-titling damaged/removed tiles Also any idea of the costs involved for the labour as we will buy the items required?
    • Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays!
