What does a replacement bath cost in Edmonton?
As a guide, budget £1,100 to £3,100 including VAT for a replacement bath in Edmonton; your written quote will pin it down. Prices in London run at about 25% above the national guide, mainly because of labour rates. The figure depends on the size of the room, whether anything moves, and the products you pick.

Working in Edmonton
We cover every part of Edmonton, including N9, N18 and N21, and nearby Tottenham (1.6 miles) and Enfield (2.1 miles).
In Edmonton, many bathrooms are in flats or converted houses, so we check lease consents, access and the floor below before we price. Survey visits in Edmonton cover the bath, the tiles around it and the waste route, so the quote reflects your bathroom rather than a standard job. If the bath in your Edmonton home is the only thing letting the bathroom down, a swap in one or two days avoids a full refit.
Water across much of Greater London is very hard. Taps, plug wastes and toilet pans scale up quickly, so chrome copes better than matt black, and a removable aerator is worth having. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Filling the bath before sealing, so the silicone cures with the bath at its heaviest
- Removal of the old bath, including breaking up a cast-iron bath in place where it will not come out whole
- Supply of the new bath, taps or filler, waste and overflow, and bath panel
- Levelling the bath on adjustable feet or a cradle, with timber battens fixed to the walls under the rim
Decisions to make first
Shower bath
A P-shaped or L-shaped bath is wider at the shower end, giving room to stand and space for a fixed screen instead of a curtain.
Size
Most UK baths are 1700 × 700 mm. Going longer or wider than the old bath means re-tiling and checking that the new one fits up the stairs.
Rules that apply in England
In England, Part G limits the hot water to a new bath to 48 °C at the outlet, usually with a thermostatic mixing valve, but only in a new dwelling or one created by a change of use. It does not apply to a replacement bath in an existing home, though a thermostatic valve is still sensible where children or older people bathe. New wiring for a shower over the bath or new lights is notifiable under Part P.
