What does a new bathroom design cost in Bangor?

Design comes with the job: the survey, layout and itemised quote are free. In Bangor, a complete designed, supplied and fitted bathroom typically costs £5,700–£10,500 including VAT. Prices in Northern Ireland run at about 12% below 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 Bangor

As well as Bangor itself (BT19 and BT20), we survey in Newtownards, Carrickfergus and Newtownabbey.

In a city the size of Bangor, parking and access for a skip are worth sorting before the start date — we will ask at the survey. If you are in Bangor and weighing a bath against a walk-in shower, the layout options show both with their prices. We measure Bangor bathrooms on site before drawing anything, so layouts are based on your walls rather than a standard plan.

Water across much of County Down is soft. 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

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 lighting and electrical plan showing switches, fittings, shaver socket and extractor fan
Checks on the soil stack, waste routes, joist direction, water pressure, hot water system and existing electrics

Decisions to make first

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.

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.

Rules that apply in Northern Ireland

In Northern Ireland, building control covers new drainage, structural changes and ventilation, which is set out in Technical Booklet K. There is no Part P, but the electrical plan should be designed, tested and certified to BS 7671.

More about bathroom design

Bathroom design in Bangor: questions

Do you charge for bathroom design in Bangor?

Not separately. The home survey, layout options and itemised written quote are free, and the detailed design is part of a supply-and-fit job. A complete designed, supplied and fitted bathroom in Bangor typically costs £5,700–£10,500 including VAT.

Do you cover BT19 and BT20 in Bangor?

Yes. We cover all of Bangor, including BT19 and BT20, and nearby Newtownards, Carrickfergus and Newtownabbey. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Bangor?

Does a new bathroom design in Bangor need building control approval?

Building control in Bangor is run by the local district council. Where approval is needed, for example for new drainage, we tell you at the survey and handle it as part of the job.

What does a bathroom designer do?

A bathroom designer works out the layout, products and finishes that suit your room and budget, within the limits set by the drainage, water supply, structure and electrics. The result is a drawing and a product list that the fitters build from, so the price can be fixed before anything is ordered.
