What does a new bathroom design cost in Pitsea?
Design comes with the job: the survey, layout and itemised quote are free. In Pitsea, 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 Pitsea
We cover every part of Pitsea, including SS13, SS14 and SS16, and nearby Basildon (2.2 miles) and South Benfleet (2.3 miles).
In Pitsea, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If you are in Pitsea and weighing a bath against a walk-in shower, the layout options show both with their prices. For loft rooms and sloping ceilings in Pitsea homes, the design checks head height where you stand, not just the floor area.
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
- Layout options drawn to scale, showing the bath or shower, WC, basin, storage and towel rail
- 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 clear view of which changes are cheap and which mean moving drainage or opening floors
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.
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.
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.
