What does a cloakroom or downstairs WC cost in Heywood?
In Heywood, a cloakroom or downstairs WC typically costs £1,700–£4,200 including VAT, based on North West England prices. We adjust the national guide for North West England, where prices are typically about 6% below the UK average.

Working in Heywood
We cover every part of Heywood, including OL10, and nearby Middleton (3 miles) and Rochdale (3.2 miles).
Homes in and around Heywood vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If your Heywood cloakroom has no window, we size and duct the extractor fan so the room clears properly. If the only toilet in your Heywood home is upstairs, a cloakroom under the stairs or in the utility can save a lot of trips.
Most of Greater Manchester is supplied with soft water. In soft water, taps, wastes and toilet pans scale up slowly, so brushed and matt finishes are a safe choice. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Splashback or feature tiling and a new floor, often LVT or porcelain
- A new waste connection to the soil stack or drain, or a macerator where the rules allow it
- Lighting wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
- Compact sanitaryware: a short-projection, back-to-wall or wall-hung WC and a corner, wall-hung or slim vanity basin
Decisions to make first
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.
Door
An outward-opening door is usually needed so it does not hit the WC. A sliding door suits a narrow hallway where an outward door would block the way.
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.
