What does a new bathroom design cost in Stanley?
Design comes with the job: the survey, layout and itemised quote are free. In Stanley, a complete designed, supplied and fitted bathroom typically costs £5,800–£10,750 including VAT. We adjust the national guide for North East England, where prices are typically about 10% below the UK average. The figure depends on the size of the room, whether anything moves, and the products you pick.

Working in Stanley
As well as Stanley itself (DH9), we survey in Chester-le-Street, Consett and Whickham.
In Stanley, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. Whether you are in Stanley or elsewhere in County Durham, layout options come with an itemised written quote. If you are in Stanley and weighing a bath against a walk-in shower, the layout options show both with their prices.
Supplies across most of County Durham are moderately hard. Easy-clean glass and good-quality brassware are money well spent. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- A clear view of which changes are cheap and which mean moving drainage or opening floors
- 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
Decisions to make first
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.
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 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.
