Bathroom renovation cost estimator
Two bathrooms of the same size can cost very different amounts to refit. Moving the layout, switching a bath for a walk-in shower, and the tiles you choose all change the labour involved — often more than the suite itself.
Estimo turns your plans into an itemised estimate for your own bathroom, so you have a realistic budget and a way to judge each fitter's quote.
What affects the cost of a bathroom refit
Keeping or moving the layout
Moving the toilet or soil pipe is one of the biggest single cost drivers.
Shower, bath or wet room
Level-access showers need tanking and a shaped floor, which adds time and materials.
Tile choice
Large-format, mosaic and patterned tiles take longer to lay than standard ceramics.
Hidden issues
Rotten floorboards, failed waterproofing or old pipework are often found only on strip-out.
Electrics and ventilation
Lighting, extractor fans and certification are required and often quoted separately.
Who supplies materials
Supplying your own suite and tiles changes what the fitter charges and who is responsible.
Before you start
