What does a new bathroom design cost in Dover?
Design comes with the job: the survey, layout and itemised quote are free. In Dover, a complete designed, supplied and fitted bathroom typically costs £7,300–£13,500 including VAT. We adjust the national guide for South East England, where prices are typically about 12% above the UK average. The figure depends on the size of the room, whether anything moves, and the products you pick.

Working in Dover
We work right across Dover — CT14, CT16 and CT17 — and in neighbouring Folkestone and Deal.
In Dover, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. Whether you are in Dover or elsewhere in Kent, layout options come with an itemised written quote. A design survey in Dover covers drainage, supplies, electrics and ventilation, so nothing on the drawing is guesswork.
Water across much of Kent is 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 clear view of which changes are cheap and which mean moving drainage or opening floors
- Checks on the soil stack, waste routes, joist direction, water pressure, hot water system and existing electrics
- A lighting and electrical plan showing switches, fittings, shaver socket and extractor fan
- A product list covering the suite, brassware, furniture, tiles, lighting and ventilation
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.
