What does a new bathroom design cost in Motherwell?

Design comes with the job: the survey, layout and itemised quote are free. In Motherwell, a complete designed, supplied and fitted bathroom typically costs £6,200–£11,500 including VAT. We adjust the national guide for Scotland, where prices are typically about 4% below the UK average. The figure depends on the size of the room, whether anything moves, and the products you pick.

Working in Motherwell

We cover every part of Motherwell, including ML1 and ML4, and nearby Bellshill (2.1 miles) and Hamilton (2.2 miles).

Homes in and around Motherwell vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. A design survey in Motherwell covers drainage, supplies, electrics and ventilation, so nothing on the drawing is guesswork. If you are in Motherwell and weighing a bath against a walk-in shower, the layout options show both with their prices.

Supplies across most of Lanarkshire are 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

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
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

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.

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 Scotland

In Scotland, a straight refit rarely needs a building warrant, but forming a new bathroom, altering drainage or structural work may. The Technical Handbook uses 15 l/s extract for a bathroom, and the Scottish Water Byelaws 2014 cover new water fittings.

More about bathroom design

Bathroom design in Motherwell: questions

Do you charge for bathroom design in Motherwell?

Not separately. The home survey, layout options and itemised written quote are free, and the detailed design is part of a supply-and-fit job. A complete designed, supplied and fitted bathroom in Motherwell typically costs £6,200–£11,500 including VAT.

Do you cover ML1 and ML4 in Motherwell?

Yes. We cover all of Motherwell, including ML1 and ML4, and nearby Bellshill, Hamilton and Wishaw. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Motherwell?

Will a new bathroom design in Motherwell need a building warrant?

Usually not for a straight refit. Building warrants are issued by the local council's building standards service, and forming a new bathroom, changing drainage or structural work can need one. We tell you at the survey and handle the application if one is needed.

Can you design a bathroom around products I have already chosen?

Yes. Tell us the products at the survey and we will check they fit the room, the water pressure and the drainage before drawing the layout around them. If something will not work, such as a shower valve that needs more pressure than your system gives, we say so before you buy anything else.
