What does a new bathroom design cost in Wellingborough?
Design comes with the job: the survey, layout and itemised quote are free. In Wellingborough, a complete designed, supplied and fitted bathroom typically costs £6,200–£11,500 including VAT. Labour costs in East Midlands put local prices at about 4% below the UK guide figure. The figure depends on the size of the room, whether anything moves, and the products you pick.

Working in Wellingborough
In Wellingborough we cover NN8; we also cover Rushden, 4 miles away, and Kettering.
Homes in and around Wellingborough vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. A design survey in Wellingborough covers drainage, supplies, electrics and ventilation, so nothing on the drawing is guesswork. We measure Wellingborough bathrooms on site before drawing anything, so layouts are based on your walls rather than a standard plan.
Most of Northamptonshire has 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
- Layout options drawn to scale, showing the bath or shower, WC, basin, storage and towel rail
- 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
- 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.
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.
