What does a new bathroom design cost in Scarborough?
Design comes with the job: the survey, layout and itemised quote are free. In Scarborough, a complete designed, supplied and fitted bathroom typically costs £6,000–£11,250 including VAT. We adjust the national guide for Yorkshire and the Humber, where prices are typically about 7% below the UK average. The figure depends on the size of the room, whether anything moves, and the products you pick.

Working in Scarborough
In Scarborough we cover YO11 and YO12; we also cover Guisborough, 31.6 miles away, and Redcar.
Homes in and around Scarborough vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. A design survey in Scarborough covers drainage, supplies, electrics and ventilation, so nothing on the drawing is guesswork. If your Scarborough bathroom has a soil stack in an awkward corner, the design starts there, because it is the one point that is costly to move.
Most of North Yorkshire has moderately hard water. Easy-clean glass and good-quality brassware are money well spent. 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 written, itemised quote, with the price fixed in writing once the layout and products are agreed
- A lighting and electrical plan showing switches, fittings, shaver socket and extractor fan
- Elevations and tile layouts on a design, supply and fit project, so the setting-out is agreed before tiling starts
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.
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.
