Covering Accrington
We work in Accrington (BB5) and the places around it, including Rawtenstall, Blackburn and Darwen.
Homes in the North West
Across the North West, Victorian terraces, inter-war semis and modern estates all feature, and brick or stone matching is chosen to suit each street.
What does bathroom installation involve?
Bathroom installation covers stripping out the old suite, altering plumbing and wiring, waterproofing, tiling, and fitting the new bath, shower, toilet, basin and heated towel rail. We also build new en-suites and shower rooms in lofts and extensions.
- Design and layout
- Plumbing and waste alterations
- Waterproofing (tanking) of wet areas
What will bathroom installation cost?
Guide prices for bathrooms and en-suites, including VAT where it applies. Your fixed price is confirmed in writing after the survey.
| Bathrooms and en-suites | Guide price incl. VAT |
|---|---|
| En-suite or shower room | £5,500 to £10,000 |
| Family bathroom refit | £7,000 to £12,000 |
| Premium bathroom or wet room | £12,000 to £20,000 |
What approvals does bathroom installation need in England?
Projects in England go through two separate checks. Planning (or confirmation that the work is permitted development) comes from the district, borough or unitary council, and building regulations approval comes from the council’s building control team or a registered building control approver. Where work touches a shared wall or digs near a neighbour’s foundations, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies.
Bathroom refits do not need planning permission. Electrical work in bathrooms is notifiable in many cases, and new bathrooms need ventilation that meets building regulations.
What can change the price or programme?
- Wet rooms need a fall to the drain and full waterproofing.
- Large-format tiles need flat walls, which may mean re-boarding.
What happens after I enquire?
- Tell us about the project. Call, use the guide price tool or send the form with a few photos and a postcode.
- Survey at your house. We look at the existing structure, services and access, and agree what the design needs to achieve.
- Price and paperwork. The design is priced line by line, and we submit the planning and building control applications.
- Construction and completion. One site lead co-ordinates every trade through to the building control certificate.
Bathrooms and en-suites: common questions
How much does a new bathroom cost?
Usually £7,000 to £12,000 for a family bathroom refit including VAT, and £5,500 to £10,000 for an en-suite.
Can you add an en-suite to a bedroom?
Yes, if a waste route to the soil stack is possible. A macerator is an option where it is not.
Who deals with the council for a project in Accrington?
We do. We prepare the drawings, submit planning or permitted development paperwork if needed, and arrange building control inspections.
