What does a new bathroom design cost in Highbury?
Design comes with the job: the survey, layout and itemised quote are free. In Highbury, a complete designed, supplied and fitted bathroom typically costs £8,100–£15,000 including VAT. We adjust the national guide for London, where prices are typically about 25% above the UK average. The figure depends on the size of the room, whether anything moves, and the products you pick.

Working in Highbury
We work right across Highbury — N1, N5 and N7 — and in neighbouring Islington and Holloway.
In Highbury, many bathrooms are in flats or converted houses, so we check lease consents, access and the floor below before we price. A design survey in Highbury covers drainage, supplies, electrics and ventilation, so nothing on the drawing is guesswork. Whether you are in Highbury or elsewhere in Greater London, layout options come with an itemised written quote.
Supplies across most of Greater London 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
- A measured survey of the room, including ceiling heights, slopes, window and door positions and any boxing
- Checks on the soil stack, waste routes, joist direction, water pressure, hot water system and existing electrics
- A product list covering the suite, brassware, furniture, tiles, lighting and ventilation
- A conversation about who uses the room, when, and what does not work about the current one
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.
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.
