What does a new bathroom design cost in Rothesay?

Design comes with the job: the survey, layout and itemised quote are free. In Rothesay, a complete designed, supplied and fitted bathroom typically costs £6,200–£11,500 including VAT. Labour costs in Scotland put local prices at about 4% below the UK guide figure. Travel and delivery to islands and remote areas are priced on your quote. The figure depends on the size of the room, whether anything moves, and the products you pick.

Working in Rothesay

We cover all of Rothesay, including PA20. Because Rothesay is further afield, we arrange survey visits in batches; tell us your timescale and we will confirm a date before you commit to anything.

Rothesay gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. Whether you are in Rothesay or elsewhere in Argyll and Bute, layout options come with an itemised written quote. If you are in Rothesay and weighing a bath against a walk-in shower, the layout options show both with their prices.

Most of Argyll and Bute is supplied with soft water. That leaves you free to choose matt black, brushed brass or clear glass without worrying much about limescale. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Checks on the soil stack, waste routes, joist direction, water pressure, hot water system and existing electrics
A product list covering the suite, brassware, furniture, tiles, lighting and ventilation
Layout options drawn to scale, showing the bath or shower, WC, basin, storage and towel rail
A measured survey of the room, including ceiling heights, slopes, window and door positions and any boxing

Decisions to make first

The door

Re-hanging the door on the other side, fitting a sliding pocket door or moving the opening can free up a whole wall in a small room.

Storage

Fitted furniture, a vanity with a tall cupboard, or recessed niches and a mirror cabinet. Recessed storage costs no floor space but needs a stud wall or deep boxing to sit in.

Rules that apply in Scotland

In Scotland, a straight refit rarely needs a building warrant, but forming a new bathroom, altering drainage or structural work may. The Technical Handbook uses 15 l/s extract for a bathroom, and the Scottish Water Byelaws 2014 cover new water fittings.

Is the water hard in Rothesay?

What happens at a bathroom design survey?

At the survey we measure and photograph the room and check the soil stack, waste routes, joists, water pressure, hot water system, electrics and ventilation. We also ask how the room is used and what you want to change. Everything that limits the layout is found at this stage, so the options we draw can actually be built.
