What does a new bathroom design cost in Altrincham?
Design comes with the job: the survey, layout and itemised quote are free. In Altrincham, a complete designed, supplied and fitted bathroom typically costs £6,100–£11,250 including VAT. Prices in North West England run at about 6% below 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 Altrincham
We work right across Altrincham — M33, WA14 and WA15 — and in neighbouring Sale and Urmston.
Homes in and around Altrincham vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. Whether you are in Altrincham or elsewhere in Greater Manchester, layout options come with an itemised written quote. If your Altrincham 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 Greater Manchester is supplied with soft water. That leaves you free to choose matt black, brushed brass or clear glass without worrying much about 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
- Elevations and tile layouts on a design, supply and fit project, so the setting-out is agreed before tiling starts
- A product list covering the suite, brassware, furniture, tiles, lighting and ventilation
- Checks on the soil stack, waste routes, joist direction, water pressure, hot water system and existing electrics
Decisions to make first
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.
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.
