What does a new bathroom design cost in Oldham?
Design comes with the job: the survey, layout and itemised quote are free. In Oldham, a complete designed, supplied and fitted bathroom typically costs £6,100–£11,250 including VAT. Labour costs in North West England put local prices at about 6% below the UK guide figure. The figure depends on the size of the room, whether anything moves, and the products you pick.

Working in Oldham
We cover every part of Oldham, including M35, OL1, OL4 and 2 more postcode districts, and nearby Middleton (3.4 miles) and Ashton-under-Lyne (3.7 miles).
Oldham is a big place with every kind of home, from terraces to flats to new builds, so we never price from a photo alone. If you are in Oldham and weighing a bath against a walk-in shower, the layout options show both with their prices. A design survey in Oldham covers drainage, supplies, electrics and ventilation, so nothing on the drawing is guesswork.
Water across much of Greater Manchester is soft. 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
- A clear view of which changes are cheap and which mean moving drainage or opening floors
- 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
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.
