Working in Southampton

As well as Southampton itself (SO14, SO15, SO16 and 3 more postcode districts), we survey in Hythe, Totton and Hedge End.

Southampton is a big place with every kind of home, from terraces to flats to new builds, so we never price from a photo alone. If your Southampton bathroom has pipes boxed in at odd angles, a fitted run is often the neatest way to hide them for good. If you want to lose the bath and gain storage in your Southampton bathroom, we show you both options before you decide.

Most of Hampshire has hard water. 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

Fitting of the furniture, worktop, sanitaryware and glass, then silicone, testing and a clean handover
Electrical work by a qualified electrician: lighting, extractor fan, shaver socket or heating, tested and certified
Boarding, tanking in the wet areas, wall and floor tiling
First and second-fix plumbing, including concealed cistern frames and new isolation valves

Decisions to make first

Tiling height

Tiling just the wet areas keeps the cost down. Full-height tiling looks better and is easier to wipe clean.

Wall-hung or floor-standing

Wall-hung units show more floor and look lighter; floor-standing units give more storage and suit uneven walls.

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.

Fitted bathrooms in Southampton: questions

What is the price of a fitted bathroom in Southampton?

A fitted bathroom in Southampton usually costs £7,300–£13,500 including VAT. Where you land in that range depends on the size of the room, whether the layout changes and the products you choose. After the free survey you get an itemised written quote, and the price is fixed in writing once the layout and products are agreed.

Do you cover SO14 in Southampton?

Is the water hard in Southampton?

Who handles building control for a fitted bathroom in Southampton?

Building control for Southampton is handled by the local council or an approved inspector. If your job needs sign-off — for example a new circuit, new drainage or a new extractor where there was none — we tell you at the survey and handle the notification as part of the work.

What is the difference between a fitted bathroom and a normal bathroom?

In a fitted bathroom the basin, WC and storage are built into one continuous run of furniture, with the cistern and pipes hidden behind panels and a worktop across the top. A standard bathroom uses separate pieces, such as a pedestal basin and close-coupled toilet, which leave gaps and visible pipework.
