If you’ve been tirelessly searching for the answer to how much would a new bathroom cost, you’ve likely come across vague answers, huge price ranges, and no straight answer. While it can be frustrating, it’s also to be expected. That’s because several factors will influence the cost when pricing a bathroom renovation. However, we have a solution to finding the answers you’re looking for.

 

For this article, we’ve combined the expertise of our bathroom fitting professionals to come up with 3 different price points. These price points range from the price of a lower-end bathroom to the price of a mid-range bathroom, and then to a higher-end bathroom renovation price.

 

Before we get to these 3 separate price points, we thought it would be a good idea to start with the average bathroom renovation cost and go from there. This way, you can manage your expectations based on what budget you have to work with before hearing the standard price points for a new bathroom.

What is the Average Bathroom Renovation Cost?

The average cost for a fully fitted bathroom is £8,000-£12,000. To clarify, in this case, a fully fitted bathroom includes complete installation of the bathroom by a specialist bathroom fitter, and the use of mid-range bathroom products.

At The Bathroom Place, many of our bathroom renovation projects will fall into this average price range. Remember that this is just the average bathroom renovation cost, and a new bathroom could cost more or less than this. We will discuss what factors can influence the price in further detail towards the end of this blog, offering a handy bathroom renovation cost breakdown.

 

 

Now that we know what the average bathroom renovation cost is, it’s time to move on to the 3 different price points. These will allow you to understand more about what kind of bathroom you could build on your budget.

How Much Would a New Bathroom Cost: Economy, Mid-Range & Premier Prices

Price Point #1: Economy Collection Bathrooms

How much would a new bathroom cost at this price point: £5,000-£7,000

 

What can you get for this price:

  • Like-for-like replacement 

  • Wall panelling 

  • Vinyl flooring 

White bathroom with shower enclosure, toiler, sink basin and rectangular mirror.

For this first price point, we’re looking at the lower end of bathroom renovation. With a price range of £5,000-£7,000, this price point will be more affordable and cover the basics of bathroom renovation. As with all the price ranges in this blog, the size of the bathroom being renovated is the biggest factor. Smaller bathroom renovations will typically cost less than larger bathrooms.

 

 

Bathrooms at this price point also yield a lower price based on the products that are supplied. For a bathroom of this price, you should expect to fill your bathroom with fixtures and features that are more affordable. For higher-priced bathrooms comes the opportunity to use higher-quality bathroom products.

 

To save money on bathroom fitting, try our Supply Only Service. We’ll supply the bathroom products you want and you can handle the installation.

Like-for-like replacement is also a common theme of bathrooms at this price point. This means that your new bathroom will be similar to your old bathroom in terms of layout and what’s included in the room.

Price Point #2: Mid-Range Collection Bathrooms

How much would a new bathroom cost at this price point: £8,000-£10,000

What can you get for this price:

  • Adding a walk-in shower with/or a fitted bath 

  • Modular units 

  • Full tiling 

As a step up from the first price point, this second price point offers more possibilities for a bathroom renovation project. At an average price range of £8,000-£10,000, this is close to the average bathroom renovation cost. Again, what you will actually pay for this type of bathroom is dependent on the size of the room.


With this price point, the new bathroom cost will be slightly higher but you will have more freedom with your bathroom renovation. With a budget of this size, you could add a new walk-in shower – which is a popular bathroom refit idea – along with a new fitted bath or you can choose just one to add. As opposed to a like-for-like replacement, a bathroom renovation at this level could completely transform your bathroom into something new.

Modular units are bathroom units that can be fitted anywhere in a bathroom. They can be either wall-mounted or floor-mounted and can be an ideal storage solution if you’re renovating for more space in the bathroom. At this price point, you could possibly switch to a fully tiled design bathroom, which is a popular bathroom trend.

With a larger budget, this price point allows you to create a bespoke bathroom that achieves your vision completely. With access to more luxurious bathroom features, such as freestanding baths and solid wood units, people can be more adventurous with their bathroom design, like by building a spa-style bathroom. It’s not just about looks – with this price point, you have the freedom to make your bathroom more functional if your current room’s layout is lacking.

Speaking of layout, one of the biggest advantages of this price point is the ability to reconfigure the layout of your current bathroom. So if this is something important to you, it may be best to pay more for a more high-end bathroom installation and have that freedom to change things up a little.
