Homes in County Down
Northern Ireland has a high proportion of detached houses and bungalows outside the cities, which often suit side extensions, rear extensions and upward extensions.
What do you get with bathroom installation?
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.
- Planning and building control applications to the council
- Plumbing and waste alterations
- Waterproofing (tanking) of wet areas
How much should I budget for bathroom installation?
Typical ranges for bathrooms and en-suites. Ground conditions, access and specification move the final figure, which we fix in writing before work starts.
| 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 |
Planning and building rules in Newtownards
Northern Ireland projects need planning clearance and building control approval from the local council. We prepare the applications and agree any work near neighbouring property directly with the neighbours.
Bathroom refits do not need planning permission; electrics and ventilation must meet 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 are the steps?
- Start with a conversation. A short call or the online form is enough for us to understand what you want to build.
- 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.
- We build it. Work follows an agreed programme, with inspections at each stage and a final sign-off.
