What does an en-suite cost in Greenwich?
In Greenwich, an en-suite typically costs £5,600–£11,250 including VAT, based on London prices. 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.
Refit
- Tiling, lighting and extractor fan
Upgrade
- Walk-in shower or larger tray
New en-suite
- New stud walls, drainage and pump if needed

Working in Greenwich
We cover every part of Greenwich, including SE3, SE7, SE10 and 1 more postcode districts, and nearby Blackheath (1.2 miles) and Canary Wharf (1.9 miles).
In Greenwich, many bathrooms are in flats or converted houses, so we check lease consents, access and the floor below before we price. If your Greenwich home has one bathroom and a good-sized main bedroom, an en-suite is often the change that eases the morning queue. If your Greenwich 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 London is very hard. If your supply in Greenwich is the same, limescale on shower glass and heads is a real issue: easy-clean glass, rub-clean nozzles and a squeegee make a big difference. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- IP-rated lighting, a shaver socket and the electrics done by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
- A survey that traces the route from the en-suite to the soil stack and checks the fall the waste pipes would need
- A door that suits a tight space: inward, outward, sliding or a pocket door
- Stud walls with acoustic insulation and moisture-resistant board for a new en-suite
Decisions to make first
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.
Refit or new en-suite
A refit keeps the existing drainage and walls. A new en-suite costs more because the walls, waste route, fan duct and electrics all start from nothing.
Rules that apply in England
In England, a new en-suite brings in Part H for the new connection to the soil stack, Approved Document F for ventilation, at 15 litres per second intermittent or 8 litres per second continuous extract, and Part P for the new circuits. The electrician should be registered with a competent person scheme, or the work notified to building control. On a refit, avoid replacing the fan with a less effective one.
