What does a new bathroom design cost in Ilkeston?
Design comes with the job: the survey, layout and itemised quote are free. In Ilkeston, a complete designed, supplied and fitted bathroom typically costs £6,200–£11,500 including VAT. We adjust the national guide for East Midlands, where prices are typically about 4% below the UK average. The figure depends on the size of the room, whether anything moves, and the products you pick.

Working in Ilkeston
We work right across Ilkeston — DE7 and NG10 — and in neighbouring Eastwood and Heanor.
In Ilkeston, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. Whether you are in Ilkeston or elsewhere in Derbyshire, layout options come with an itemised written quote. If your Ilkeston bathroom has a soil stack in an awkward corner, the design starts there, because it is the one point that is costly to move.
Most of Derbyshire has moderately hard water. 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
- 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
- A written, itemised quote, with the price fixed in writing once the layout and products are agreed
- Checks on the soil stack, waste routes, joist direction, water pressure, hot water system and existing electrics
Decisions to make first
Where the shower goes
A shower on an outside wall is easier to ventilate; one under a sloping ceiling needs full head height where you stand, not just at the high side.
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.
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.
