What does a new bathroom design cost in Margate?
Design comes with the job: the survey, layout and itemised quote are free. In Margate, a complete designed, supplied and fitted bathroom typically costs £7,300–£13,500 including VAT. Prices in South East England run at about 12% above 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 Margate
As well as Margate itself (CT8, CT9 and CT11), we survey in Broadstairs, Ramsgate and Deal.
In Margate, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If you are in Margate and weighing a bath against a walk-in shower, the layout options show both with their prices. Whether you are in Margate or elsewhere in Kent, layout options come with an itemised written quote.
Most of Kent has very hard water. 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
- A product list covering the suite, brassware, furniture, tiles, lighting and ventilation
- Elevations and tile layouts on a design, supply and fit project, so the setting-out is agreed before tiling starts
- A conversation about who uses the room, when, and what does not work about the current one
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.
Planning for later
Timber noggins in the walls for future grab rails, a wider door or a level shower floor cost far less to build in now than to add later.
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.
