What does a new bathroom design cost in Irlam?
Design comes with the job: the survey, layout and itemised quote are free. In Irlam, 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 Irlam
In Irlam we cover M31, M41 and M44; we also cover Urmston, 2.9 miles away, and Sale.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Irlam: free survey, written quote, one team. If you are in Irlam and weighing a bath against a walk-in shower, the layout options show both with their prices. For loft rooms and sloping ceilings in Irlam homes, the design checks head height where you stand, not just the floor area.
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
- Checks on the soil stack, waste routes, joist direction, water pressure, hot water system and existing electrics
- A clear view of which changes are cheap and which mean moving drainage or opening floors
- A lighting and electrical plan showing switches, fittings, shaver socket and extractor fan
- A conversation about who uses the room, when, and what does not work about the current one
Decisions to make first
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.
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.
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.
