What does a new bathroom design cost in Harlow?
Design comes with the job: the survey, layout and itemised quote are free. In Harlow, a complete designed, supplied and fitted bathroom typically costs £6,900–£12,750 including VAT. We adjust the national guide for East of England, where prices are typically about 6% above the UK average. The figure depends on the size of the room, whether anything moves, and the products you pick.

Working in Harlow
We work right across Harlow — CM17, CM18, CM19 and 1 more postcode districts — and in neighbouring Hoddesdon and Ware.
Across a large town like Harlow, homes range from older terraces to newer estates; the survey tells us which pipework and floor we are dealing with. For loft rooms and sloping ceilings in Harlow homes, the design checks head height where you stand, not just the floor area. Whether you are in Harlow or elsewhere in Essex, layout options come with an itemised written quote.
Supplies across most of Essex are 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
- Checks on the soil stack, waste routes, joist direction, water pressure, hot water system and existing electrics
- 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
- A clear view of which changes are cheap and which mean moving drainage or opening floors
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 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.
