What does a cloakroom or downstairs WC cost in Stratford?
Our guide price for a cloakroom or downstairs WC in Stratford is £2,200–£5,600 including VAT. Labour costs in London put local prices at about 25% above the UK guide figure. The figure depends on the size of the room, whether anything moves, and the products you pick.

Working in Stratford
We work right across Stratford — E7, E12 and E15 — and in neighbouring Bow and Canning Town.
In Stratford, many bathrooms are in flats or converted houses, so we check lease consents, access and the floor below before we price. If your Stratford cloakroom has no window, we size and duct the extractor fan so the room clears properly. If you are refreshing a dated cloakroom in Stratford, a wall-hung WC and slim vanity can change the room in a few days.
Supplies across most of Greater London are very hard. Taps, plug wastes and toilet pans scale up quickly, so chrome copes better than matt black, and a removable aerator is worth having. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Lighting wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
- An extractor fan ducted to outside, wired with an overrun timer or linked to the light
- A survey that checks the headroom under the stairs, the door swing and how the waste will reach the drain
- Strip-out of the old fittings, waste removal and making good on the hall side
Decisions to make first
Under-stair layout
Headroom drops quickly under stairs. The basin and the space in front of the WC need standing height; the low end of the room can take the cistern or storage.
Finishes
A small room can carry a bolder tile or wallpaper. A feature wall behind the WC costs far less here than in a full bathroom because there is so little of it.
Rules that apply in England
In England, a new WC connected to the soil stack or drain is drainage work under Part H, and a newly formed cloakroom without an opening window should have mechanical extract; Approved Document F gives 6 litres per second as the design rate for a WC, against 15 for a bathroom. Because a cloakroom has no bath or shower, adding a light to an existing circuit is not notifiable under Part P, but a new circuit is.
