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

Working in Maidstone
As well as Maidstone itself (ME14, ME15 and ME16), we survey in Chatham, Rochester and Gillingham.
Across a large town like Maidstone, homes range from older terraces to newer estates; the survey tells us which pipework and floor we are dealing with. A design survey in Maidstone covers drainage, supplies, electrics and ventilation, so nothing on the drawing is guesswork. Whether you are in Maidstone or elsewhere in Kent, layout options come with an itemised written quote.
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 lighting and electrical plan showing switches, fittings, shaver socket and extractor fan
- A clear view of which changes are cheap and which mean moving drainage or opening floors
- Layout options drawn to scale, showing the bath or shower, WC, basin, storage and towel rail
- 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.
