Homes in the Scottish Borders
Housing in Scotland includes tenements in the cities, sandstone villas, inter-war and post-war semis and a large number of bungalows, which often suit dormer and upward extensions.
What do you get with bathroom installation?
Most bathroom problems come from poor waterproofing and ventilation, so we tank wet areas, fit extraction that actually clears steam, and check water pressure before choosing showers. All electrics in bathrooms are done to the special-location rules.
- Building warrant application and completion certificate
- Design and layout
- Tiling, sanitaryware and brassware
How much does bathroom installation cost in Peebles?
Use these ranges to budget for bathrooms and en-suites; the survey turns them into a fixed price for the agreed specification.
| 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 Scotland?
In Scotland the key step is the building warrant, which must be granted before work begins. Planning permission is decided separately by the council, and work on shared walls is handled under your title deeds rather than a party wall act.
Bathroom refits do not usually need planning permission; new bathrooms or drainage changes may need a building warrant.
What can affect bathroom installation?
- Wet rooms need a fall to the drain and full waterproofing.
- Moving a toilet depends on the soil pipe route.
From first call to completion
- Start with a conversation. A short call or the online form is enough for us to understand what you want to build.
- We visit and measure. A surveyor checks the house, the boundaries and the ground, and discusses what is realistic.
- Price and paperwork. The design is priced line by line, and we submit the planning and building control applications.
- Build and hand over. Our teams build to the programme, building control inspects, and you get the completion paperwork at the end.
What people ask before starting
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.
Do you tank the shower area?
Yes, every wet area is waterproofed before tiling.
Can you visit a house in Peebles to quote?
Yes. After a short call we arrange a site visit to measure up and agree what the design needs to do, then send a written price.
