Quick Answer

A good bathroom renovation is about technical quality as much as style

The strongest bathroom projects feel calm and beautiful on the surface because the hidden work underneath has been handled properly: waterproofing, services, sequencing and finish discipline.

Direct answer: most London bathroom renovations sit between £6,000 and £35,000+, with many serious design-led bathrooms starting from around £12,000. Most installations take 2 to 4 weeks, but the right budget and timeline depend on the size of the room, the amount of layout change and the finish level you are aiming for.

Conversion Tool

Want a fast bathroom budget range before you enquire?

Use the bathroom cost calculator to get an early range before you start comparing fixtures, layouts or fitting routes on guesswork.

Typical budget

£6,000 to £35,000+

Depends on bathroom size, layout changes, tiling scope, fixture level and whether the project is a standard bathroom, en-suite or wet room.

Mid-range sweet spot

£12,000 to £20,000

That is where many London homeowners land once they want a proper redesign, quality finishes and a bathroom that feels clearly better to use.

Typical timeline

Usually 2 to 4 weeks

More complex wet rooms, premium detailing or multi-bathroom projects can take longer, but most bathroom installations sit within that range.

Starting point

From around £12,000

That is the realistic entry point for many full bathroom renovations once design, installation quality and proper finishing matter.

Included

What is included in a bathroom renovation

The work that makes a bathroom last is not just the visible finish. It is the full sequence from strip-out and waterproofing through to second-fix and closeout.

Strip-out and preparation

Removing the old bathroom cleanly and preparing the room properly so the new installation is built on the right base rather than hidden compromise.

Waterproofing and substrate work

The moisture-critical prep that protects the bathroom long after the tiles and fittings go in.

Plumbing and first-fix electrics

Setting up the services correctly for the new layout, fixtures, lighting and extraction before the visible finishes are installed.

Tiling and surface finishing

The part everyone sees, but only after the underlying prep work is correct. This is where quality craftsmanship really shows.

Sanitaryware and second-fix installation

Fitting baths, showers, basins, brassware, WCs, towel rails and the details that shape how the room feels to use day to day.

Decoration, snagging and final handover

The closeout stage that makes the bathroom feel complete, precise and safe to live with rather than hurriedly finished.

Costs

Bathroom renovation cost ranges in London

Use these guide ranges to sense-check whether you are planning a straightforward refresh, a fuller redesign or a more premium wet-room style project.

£6,000 to £10,000Around 2 to 3 weeks

Basic refresh

Best when the layout stays broadly similar and the goal is to improve dated finishes, fittings and overall presentation without a bigger redesign.

£12,000 to £20,000Around 2 to 4 weeks

Mid-range redesign

The strongest fit for most London bathrooms where you want better layout use, stronger material choices and a room that feels noticeably calmer and more premium.

£20,000 to £35,000+Around 3 to 5+ weeks

High-end bathroom or wet room

Used when the brief includes premium finishes, specialist waterproofing, bespoke joinery, underfloor heating or a more ambitious wet-room style design.

Proof

Real bathroom projects that show both design intent and build quality

Bathroom clients usually want reassurance on two things at once: that the room will look good, and that the hidden technical work will be done properly enough to trust.

Made a first bathroom renovation feel smooth
We worked with Gino to make our dream bathroom into a reality. This was our first renovation project in our first home, so we were quite nervous about the process, but Gino and his team made it really smooth.

Process

How we keep bathroom projects organised

Bathroom projects become stressful when the waterproofing, services and finishing trades are not properly coordinated. This process is designed to keep that under control.

Step 1

Define the right bathroom brief

We start with how the room needs to function day to day, not just what style people like online. That shapes the right layout, fittings and finish level.

Step 2

Plan layout, services and materials

Bathroom projects depend on good coordination between waterproofing, plumbing, electrics, tiling and fixture choices before work starts.

Step 3

Strip out and prep properly

The hidden prep work is what determines long-term durability. This phase matters as much as the visible finish.

Step 4

Install with technical discipline

The room is built back through first-fix, waterproofing, tiling, second-fix and final finishing in the right order to protect quality.

Step 5

Snag and hand over with confidence

A bathroom should be handed over feeling watertight, precise and fully resolved, not left with the sort of little issues that become expensive later.

Guarantees that protect the work after handover
