Full Bathroom Refurbishment
A full bathroom refurbishment replaces the entire bathroom — suite (bath, toilet, basin), tiling, flooring, shower enclosure, accessories and lighting — creating a completely fresh space from scratch. It is one of the most value-adding home improvements you can make.
The cost varies enormously depending on bathroom size, the quality of the new suite and the extent of plumbing and tile work involved. Getting 3 quotes from experienced bathroom fitters is essential to understand the true market rate and what each quote includes.
What affects the cost of Full Bathroom Refurbishment?
Prices vary between professionals depending on several factors. Getting 3 quotes gives you a clear picture of the market rate for your specific job.
- Bathroom size — square footage directly affects tiling area, flooring, and fitting time.
- Suite quality — budget, mid-range, and bespoke suites carry very different price points.
- Wet room vs standard — wet rooms need full waterproofing and a linear drain, adding to cost.
- Tiling — full-height tiling across multiple walls is more expensive than a partial tile run.
- Plumbing complexity — relocating a soil stack, bath, or shower significantly increases labour cost.
