Covering Wilmslow
Wilmslow sits 29 miles east of Chester, with Cheadle Hulme 4 miles to the north-east and Altrincham 6 miles to the north-west.
Homes in the North West
The North West has long rows of Victorian terraced houses in its towns and cities, alongside inter-war semis and post-war estates, so rear extensions, dormer lofts and kitchen extensions are common projects.
What does bathroom installation involve?
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.
- Strip-out and disposal
- 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?
English projects need planning clearance from the local council, building regulations sign-off from building control, and party wall notices where the work is on or near a shared boundary. We prepare and manage all three.
Bathroom refits do not need planning permission.
What can change the price or programme?
- Low water pressure limits the choice of shower; a pump or unvented cylinder may be needed.
- Large-format tiles need flat walls, which may mean re-boarding.
What happens after I enquire?
- Send us the details. Give us a postcode, a rough idea of size and some photos, by phone, form or the guide price tool.
- Survey at your house. We look at the existing structure, services and access, and agree what the design needs to achieve.
- Design and fixed price. You get drawings and a written price for the agreed specification before anything is ordered.
- Build and hand over. Our teams build to the programme, building control inspects, and you get the completion paperwork at the end.
