What does a fitted bathroom cost in Hove?
In Hove, a fitted bathroom typically costs £7,300–£13,500 including VAT, based on South East England prices. We adjust the national guide for South East England, where prices are typically about 12% above the UK average. The figure depends on the size of the room, whether anything moves, and the products you pick.

Working in Hove
In Hove we cover BN1, BN3 and BN41; we also cover Brighton, 1.2 miles away, and Portslade.
Hove has a wide mix of house ages, so the survey is where we spot old lead pipework, weak joists or a tight soil stack. If your Hove bathroom has pipes boxed in at odd angles, a fitted run is often the neatest way to hide them for good. Whether your Hove bathroom is a compact box room or a larger main bathroom, the layout starts from measurements taken on site.
Water across much of East Sussex is hard. We plan easy-clean glass, rimless toilets and finishes that do not show limescale. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Supply of the suite, fitted furniture, worktop, brassware, tiles and accessories
- Fitting of the furniture, worktop, sanitaryware and glass, then silicone, testing and a clean handover
- Strip-out of the old bathroom and removal of the waste
- First and second-fix plumbing, including concealed cistern frames and new isolation valves
Decisions to make first
Furniture finish
Matt or gloss lacquer, wood-effect, painted shaker or handleless. Darker finishes hide marks; lighter ones make a small room feel bigger.
Bath, shower or both
Keep a bath for children or soaking, swap it for a walk-in shower if no one uses it, or plan both if the room is big enough.
Rules that apply in England
In England, new circuits and most electrical changes in a bathroom are notifiable under Part P, so they must be done by an electrician registered with a competent person scheme or notified to building control. If you are adding a new extractor fan, Approved Document F gives 15 litres per second as the usual intermittent extract rate.
