What does a new bathroom design cost in Ely?
Design comes with the job: the survey, layout and itemised quote are free. In Ely, a complete designed, supplied and fitted bathroom typically costs £6,900–£12,750 including VAT. Prices in East of England run at about 6% 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 Ely
As well as Ely itself (CB6 and CB7), we survey in Newmarket, March and St Ives.
Ely gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. For loft rooms and sloping ceilings in Ely homes, the design checks head height where you stand, not just the floor area. If you are in Ely and weighing a bath against a walk-in shower, the layout options show both with their prices.
Water across much of Cambridgeshire is very hard. We plan easy-clean glass, rimless toilets and finishes that do not show limescale. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Elevations and tile layouts on a design, supply and fit project, so the setting-out is agreed before tiling starts
- A measured survey of the room, including ceiling heights, slopes, window and door positions and any boxing
- 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
Decisions to make first
Keep or change the layout
Keeping the WC and shower where they are saves on plumbing. The WC is the costly one to move, because it is tied to the soil stack.
Tile setting-out
Centring tiles on the window, basin or niche avoids thin slivers at the edges. Large tiles mean fewer joints but need flatter walls.
Rules that apply in England
In England, a new connection to the soil stack or new drainage can be building regulations work under Part H, and new circuits or alterations to circuits in the bathroom are notifiable under Part P. Where a new bathroom is formed, Approved Document F asks for extract at 15 l/s intermittent or 8 l/s continuous.
