What is 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.
- Design and layout
- Waterproofing (tanking) of wet areas
- Tiling, sanitaryware and brassware
How much should I budget for bathroom installation?
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 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?
- Low water pressure limits the choice of shower; a pump or unvented cylinder may be needed.
- Wet rooms need a fall to the drain and full waterproofing.
What are the steps?
- Tell us about the project. Call, use the guide price tool or send the form with a few photos and a postcode.
- 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.
