To help you get a quick estimate, we’ve created a Bathroom Renovation Cost Calculator (Check how much bathroom renovation cost) —a handy online tool that gives you a clear idea of potential bathroom renovation costs.

The cost of a bathroom renovation can vary quite a bit, depending on several important factors. It really comes down to what you’re looking to achieve, what kind of materials and finishes you prefer, and how much you’re happy to invest in your space. At our company, we always aim to tailor each project to fit the client’s needs and budget, hence we’re not afraid to ask our clients what their total budget is. That’s why we typically offer three tiers of bathroom renovations: budget, mid-range and premium. During our initial consultation, we take the time to listen and understand exactly what you’re after — whether it’s a simple refresh or a full transformation — so we can recommend the most suitable options for you.

Materials matter — choosing copper plumbing instead of composite pipes will add to the cost because copper takes more time to install properly. Similarly, if you’re deciding between bathroom wall panels and traditional tiles, tiles offer a more luxurious, long-lasting finish, but they do take more time and preparation to install (about 3–4 times longer, in fact!).

Tile details — things like tile size, pattern complexity, and stylish features such as built-in shelves or trimless 45-degree edge finishes can all influence the final price. The more intricate the design, the more time and precision it requires.

Bathroom fittings — certain items, like concealed cisterns, wall-hung toilets, or thermostatic shower mixers, need more technical installation and usually increase both material and labour costs. Additional elements like underfloor heating, electric towel rails, dual-fuel radiators, integrated LED mirrors, and toothbrush charging stations also play a role in shaping the overall cost.

Property specifics — working in older properties may involve structural repairs or redoing outdated plumbing and electrics, which can take longer and cost more. Likewise, if you live in an apartment or flat, things like parking permits, waste disposal, and access logistics can affect the pricing.

We’ve recently noticed some companies promise bathroom renovations in just 3–5 days. While that sounds tempting, the reality is that a quality bathroom renovation takes time. Just preparing the bathroom space — removing old materials, plastering, waterproofing, plumbing, and electrical work — can take 5–6 days alone. If the room has multiple layers of old tiles or structural issues, it can take even longer.

Use our Bathroom Renovation Cost Calculator to get a general idea of costs.

If you're working with a tight budget or simply want a reliable and functional bathroom, the best advice is: keep it simple. From design to product choices, simplicity can save you time and money—without sacrificing style.

To reduce labour costs, avoid small tiles or intricate tiling patterns, which are time-consuming to install. At the same time, steer clear of oversized tiles that require multiple installers to lift and cut properly. Choose standard tile sizes with straightforward layouts to strike the right balance.

Minimise the use of complex features like concealed toilet cisterns, integrated shower mixers, or recessed wall niches. While they can look sleek, these elements often increase installation time and overall bathroom reconstruction costs.

If you're sourcing bathroom fixtures yourself, make sure to shop around—visit at least 3 to 4 suppliers. Just remember: the cheapest option isn’t always the best. Low-cost products may lead to performance or durability issues down the line.

Avoid purchasing bulky items like shower trays, baths, wet room kits or toilets in advance. These should be selected only after a full on-site inspection and survey. For example, with a shower tray, it’s critical to ensure the trap can sit between floor joists to allow for a low-profile installation.

As a trusted bathroom renovation company in Manchester, we offer both PVC (composite) panels and traditional tiling. However, for residential bathrooms and long-term durability, we generally recommend tiles.

While tiling requires more time and skill to install properly, it offers superior longevity and a more polished finish. Tiles—especially when paired with professional waterproofing (tanking)—will easily outlast most PVC panels, particularly cheaper options with hollow cores.

PVC panels are becoming popular for budget-friendly bathroom makeovers, and some installers offer to place them directly over existing tiles. However, at Builders Squad Ltd, we hold ourselves to higher standards. We always advise proper bathroom preparation and waterproofing to ensure lasting quality and a clean, professional look.

Our renovation process is designed to be smooth, transparent, and client-focused. It begins with a site survey to understand your vision and requirements. During this initial visit, we go through a detailed renovation questionnaire with you to ensure we capture every detail.

Within a few hours of the survey, we typically provide a virtual estimate with tailored pricing options. If you decide to proceed, we schedule a final site survey around one week before the project start date. This meeting covers finer details such as tile edge trims, grout colours, and ensuring selected kitchen or bathroom items suit your space.

We pride ourselves on trust and quality—no upfront payments are required. Payment is only due upon project completion and after both you and our team have signed off on the work. An invoice is then issued.

In short - yes, it’s possible, but there are several important factors to consider. The feasibility largely depends on the location of your soil pipe stack and the ease of access to hot and cold water feeds, electrical supply, and main drainage.

Costs can increase significantly if structural changes are needed or if the new bathroom location is far from existing plumbing. We always recommend careful planning before making major layout changes, as they can be costly and complex.

Keep in mind that Building Regulations will likely apply, especially when converting spaces like bedrooms, storage areas, or lofts into bathrooms or en-suites. Our team is happy to guide you through the process to ensure everything is done safely and to code.

A full back-to-bricks renovation of an average-sized bathroom typically takes 12 to 15 working days. If you’re opting for more complex tiling patterns like herringbone or using smaller tiles, the installation may take longer due to the precision involved.

For kitchen renovations, the timeline usually ranges from 3 to 14 working days, depending on the size of the kitchen and the scope of work. Tasks such as plastering, flooring, painting, or electrical upgrades can extend the overall duration.

Our team will provide a clear schedule based on your project’s specific requirements to keep everything running smoothly.

Kitchen worktops are often one of the most expensive components of a new kitchen, so the right choice depends heavily on your overall kitchen renovation budget.

If you're aiming for a premium, long-lasting finish, we recommend quartz or ceramic worktops. These materials are highly durable, resistant to scratches and stains, and offer a high-end look that elevates any kitchen design. Quartz worktops, especially when paired with an undermount sink, also make cleaning and daily maintenance much easier.

For those working with a tighter budget, laminate or solid wood worktops are excellent alternatives. While solid wood worktops offer a warm, natural aesthetic—ideal for traditional kitchens—they do require regular maintenance and care. Laminate worktops are budget-friendly and practical, making them a smart choice for landlords, home sellers, or cost-conscious kitchen renovators.

Tip: Choose square-edge laminate worktops over rounded-edge ones. They’re not only more resistant to edge damage but also provide a cleaner, more modern look once fitted.

Yes, professional bathroom fitters typically take care of the entire bathroom renovation or wet room remodelling process from start to finish - and that includes removing old fittings.

As part of our bathroom remodel service, we handle the safe removal and disposal of outdated bathroom fixtures, tiles, and other materials.

We also ensure the area is clean and properly prepared for the next stage of your bathroom renovation project.

During bathroom renovations, we understand how important it is to have access to a working toilet.

Depending on the scope of the project and the household setup, our bathroom fitters will discuss the best temporary solutions with you in advance.

In some cases, we can keep the existing toilet functional until the new one is ready to be installed.

For more extensive bathroom remodelling, we may recommend arranging a temporary toilet or portable unit. Rest assured, we’ll do everything we can to minimise disruption and keep your home running smoothly throughout the bathroom renovation.

Achieving a neat, straight finish when sealing a bathroom comes down to the right technique and tools.

Our experienced bathroom fitters use high-quality silicone sealant and apply it with precision, typically using masking tape to guide straight edges and prevent smudging.

Once applied, we smooth the sealant with a finishing tool or damp finger for a clean, professional look.

This attention to detail is a key part of our bathroom remodelling service, ensuring a watertight seal and a polished, long-lasting finish.

We always recommend choosing reputable brands when selecting kitchen and bathroom fixtures. While higher-end options may require a slightly bigger investment, they often offer better build quality, longer-lasting performance, and excellent after-sales support — all of which help reduce the risk of faults and costly plumbing repairs down the line.

Some of the most trusted names in the UK market include Grohe, Hansgrohe, Geberit, Roca, Crosswater, Scudo, Villeroy & Boch, Kartell, Bristan, Mira Showers, Tavistock, Duravit and Burlington for more traditional styles. For kitchen fixtures, we also recommend Franke and Blanco, both of which are known for their premium sinks and taps.

As experienced bathroom fitters, we’ve worked with a wide range of products over the years, and we’ve seen firsthand the long-term benefits of choosing quality brands when carrying out bathroom renovations or kitchen remodelling projects.

Not much—just your presence and availability. To deliver your kitchen or bathroom exactly the way you imagine, we need your input on key details like fixture heights, fittings, colours, appliances, worktops, and layouts.

We recommend being available on-site a few times a week, as live discussions often work better than digital messages. Since, like our clients, we also have families and responsibilities outside of work, we suggest covering all technical discussions during our working hours. This helps us stay focused, efficient, and respectful of everyone’s time.

With your guidance during the project and our expertise in kitchen and bathroom renovations, we can create a space that perfectly matches your vision.

Our kitchens are different because we combine products from multiple trusted manufacturers and suppliers. This approach allows us to stay highly competitive on price while still delivering top-quality kitchen carcasses, units, panels, and finishes. It also means shorter waiting times—most ranges can be supplied the same or next day.

Unlike many kitchen suppliers, we’re also experienced installers, plumbers and tilers. That means we don’t just sell kitchens — we consider every technical detail, potential obstacle, and design challenge right from the start. From day one, you’ll have your own personal advisor to guide you through kitchen renovation planning, design and installation.

Another big advantage is that the majority of our suppliers, manufacturers and distributors are based in Manchester. This makes it easy for us to operate smoothly, quickly swap or return items if needed, and keep your project on schedule without unnecessary delays.

In short - we believe our kitchens are better because they are designed with expertise, installed with care and supplied at prices up to 60% cheaper than many rivals—all while giving you a faster, more reliable service.

Yes! We provide a full range of handyman services in Manchester and the surrounding areas. For the best experience, we recommend giving us a call to check current availability.

To save on costs, it’s often a good idea to combine several smaller tasks into a single visit. We also offer a subscription-based handyman service—yes, “Handyman as a Service” — for regular maintenance and ongoing support. Contact us to learn more and find the plan that works best for your home.

A wet room is a fully waterproofed (or “tanked”) bathroom where the shower is open to the rest of the space, usually without a traditional tray or enclosure. The entire floor is gently sloped towards a drain, and the room is designed to handle splashes and steam throughout. In contrast, a shower room features a defined shower area, typically enclosed with glass panels or doors and often incorporating a shower tray.

For most British homes - particularly those with timber floors, suspended floors, or any floor type that’s prone to vibration or movement - a shower room is usually the more suitable long-term choice. The enclosed design helps protect against leaks, reduces the risk of water damage, and offers greater durability where the subfloor isn’t solid concrete.

That said, a properly installed wet room with high-quality waterproofing and ventilation can still last for many years and provides excellent accessibility. However, if your priority is reliability and longevity in the average UK property, a shower room is often the safer and more practical option.

Yes, we do. Our team specialises in garage conversions, loft conversions, and structural alterations where required. Converting your garage into a habitable room is one of the most cost-effective ways to add value and create extra living space in your home.

In most cases, a garage conversion in the UK will need building regulations approval, and sometimes planning permission, depending on the type of work and the property. Before starting, you may also need professional architectural drawings and support with your building regs application.

We can guide you through the whole process - from initial consultation and design to final completion, so your conversion is compliant, practical and built to last. Please contact us to discuss your project in detail, including garage conversion costs, timelines, and planning requirements.

Even highly reputable companies can be unfairly targeted. Fake negative reviews may come from competitors, paid agencies or disgruntled individuals trying to damage our reputation. These attacks are designed to mislead potential clients and are illegal under UK law.
