What does a new bathroom design cost in Peebles?
Design comes with the job: the survey, layout and itemised quote are free. In Peebles, a complete designed, supplied and fitted bathroom typically costs £6,200–£11,500 including VAT. Labour costs in Scotland 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 Peebles
As well as Peebles itself (EH45), we survey in Penicuik, Galashiels and Bonnyrigg.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Peebles: free survey, written quote, one team. We measure Peebles bathrooms on site before drawing anything, so layouts are based on your walls rather than a standard plan. For loft rooms and sloping ceilings in Peebles homes, the design checks head height where you stand, not just the floor area.
Supplies across most of the Scottish Borders 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
- Elevations and tile layouts on a design, supply and fit project, so the setting-out is agreed before tiling starts
- A clear view of which changes are cheap and which mean moving drainage or opening floors
- A written, itemised quote, with the price fixed in writing once the layout and products are agreed
- A measured survey of the room, including ceiling heights, slopes, window and door positions and any boxing
Decisions to make first
Where the shower goes
A shower on an outside wall is easier to ventilate; one under a sloping ceiling needs full head height where you stand, not just at the high side.
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 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.
