What does a bathroom extractor fan cost in Greenwich?
As a guide, budget £300 to £750 including VAT for a bathroom extractor fan in Greenwich; your written quote will pin it down. We adjust the national guide for London, where prices are typically about 25% above the UK average. The figure depends on the size of the room, whether anything moves, and the products you pick.

Working in Greenwich
We work right across Greenwich — SE3, SE7, SE10 and 1 more postcode districts — and in neighbouring Blackheath and Canary Wharf.
In Greenwich, many bathrooms are in flats or converted houses, so we check lease consents, access and the floor below before we price. We check the duct route at Greenwich surveys, because a short, straight run to outside matters more than the fan's headline figure. If your Greenwich home is listed or in a period terrace, a fan ducted through the loft to a roof vent can avoid a new hole in the front wall, though consent may still apply.
Supplies across most of Greater London are very hard. Steam carries that scale onto mirrors and glass, so a fan that clears the room quickly helps on both counts. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Wiring by a qualified electrician, with an isolator outside the room and RCD protection
- A backdraught shutter and external grille, so cold air does not blow back in
- A fan chosen to meet the bathroom extract rate: 15 l/s intermittent or 8 l/s continuous
- Run-on timer, humidistat or light-linked switching set up to suit how the room is used
Decisions to make first
Axial, centrifugal or inline
Axial fans suit short, straight runs; centrifugal fans cope better with longer ducts; inline fans sit in the loft and are the quietest in the room.
Noise
Compare the stated noise level in decibels. Inline fans and low-speed continuous fans are much quieter in the room than budget axial fans.
Rules that apply in England
In England, Approved Document F sets bathroom extract at 15 l/s for an intermittent fan or 8 l/s for continuous extract. Wiring a new fan alters a circuit in a room with a bath or shower, so it is notifiable under Part P.
