Common questions
A small bathroom kept in the same layout with a mid-range suite typically costs £4,000 to £6,500 all in. A cloakroom or en-suite can be less.
Labour and tiling are usually the biggest line, followed by the shower and any layout changes. Moving the toilet or bath adds the most because of the soil pipe work.
