How much does a new bathroom cost in the West Midlands in 2026?

A standard full bathroom renovation in Birmingham, Worcester and the surrounding West Midlands typically falls between £6,000 and £9,500 including suite, tiling and labour. Premium and luxury installations usually sit between £10,000 and £18,000+, depending on materials and complexity.

How long does a full bathroom renovation take?

Most full renovations take 10–15 working days. Wet rooms and complex tiling can run a few days longer. We give you a realistic timeline in writing before any work starts.

What's included in your bathroom quote?

Our quotes are fully itemised: strip-out, waste removal, first and second-fix plumbing, tanking, tiling, suite installation, brassware and the final clean. If you'd like, we can also include the suite, tiles and brassware at trade pricing.

Do I need to move out during the work?

Usually no, as long as you have a second bathroom or WC. We dust-control the rest of the house and tidy up at the end of every day.

Will a walk-in shower add value to my home?

Yes. A well-installed walk-in shower with quality brassware and luxury tiling typically adds more perceived value than a tired bath would, especially in family homes with more than one bathroom.

Do you supply the bathroom suite or do I?

Either works. We can source everything through our trade accounts at competitive pricing, or fit a suite you've bought yourself. Most clients prefer supply and fit because it's quicker and there's one point of accountability.

Do you guarantee your work?

Yes. We stand behind the workmanship on every bathroom we install. Manufacturer warranties cover the suite and brassware separately.

What drives the price

The four things that move bathroom cost most

Before you ask for a quote, it helps to know which decisions move the number the most. These are the four we see make the biggest difference.

Size and layout changes

Keeping the existing layout is the cheapest path. Moving the WC or shower means re-running soil and water pipework — more labour, more time, but sometimes worth it.

Tiling area and tile choice

Floor-to-ceiling porcelain costs more than half-tiled walls with paint above. Large-format and natural stone tiles take longer to cut and lay than standard porcelain.

Brassware and suite

A premium brass thermostatic shower set with rainfall and handheld heads can be £400–£1,200 alone. The same applies to taps, vanity and WC choices.

Wet room vs walk-in shower

A full wet room (tanked floor and walls, level-access drain) costs more than a walk-in shower tray for the same footprint because the waterproofing and floor build-up are more involved.
