Guide price in Glasgow: £4,300–£8,600 including VAT, depending on the room and what you choose. 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 Glasgow
We cover every part of Glasgow, including G1, G2, G3 and 25 more postcode districts, and nearby Rutherglen (3 miles) and Bishopbriggs (3.2 miles).
Glasgow is a big place with every kind of home, from terraces to flats to new builds, so we never price from a photo alone. We quote new en-suites in Glasgow only after checking the drainage route on site, so the price reflects the work your house actually needs. If your Glasgow en-suite fan just blows into the loft, we can duct it properly to outside as part of the refit.
Water across much of Greater Glasgow is soft. If that holds for your street in Glasgow, limescale on shower glass and heads builds up slowly and a squeegee after use is usually enough. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- A short-projection or wall-hung WC and a compact basin chosen to keep the floor clear
- A pumped waste or macerator where gravity drainage is not possible, and only where the house already has a WC on gravity drainage
- A survey that traces the route from the en-suite to the soil stack and checks the fall the waste pipes would need
- Stud walls with acoustic insulation and moisture-resistant board for a new en-suite
Decisions to make first
Exposed or concealed valve
An exposed bar valve is quicker to fit and easy to service. A concealed valve looks cleaner but sits inside the wall, so plan how it will be reached for repairs.
Shower size
A 900 mm square tray is a comfortable minimum for an enclosure. In a long, narrow room, a 1200 by 800 mm walk-in tray with one glass panel feels far more generous.
Rules that apply in Scotland
In Scotland, forming a new en-suite may need a building warrant because it creates a new bathroom and alters drainage; refitting an existing one rarely does. The Technical Handbook uses the same 15 litres per second extract rate for a bathroom, and the electrics should be tested and certified to BS 7671.
