Local housing and a new bathroom
Southampton and Portsmouth have dense Victorian terraces, with plenty of post-war rebuilding after wartime bombing. Winchester keeps Georgian and medieval streets, Basingstoke expanded rapidly with 1960s and 1970s estates, and New Forest villages feature cob, thatch and brick. Brick and flint is common on the chalk downs, and new estates ring most towns.
Terraces suit loft rooms and side-return extensions; post-war and expanded-town homes often need window, roofline and cladding renewal. Cottages in the Forest may call for lime repairs and planning-sensitive windows.
That variety is why a guide price for a new bathroom in Aldershot is only a starting point; the survey shows what your particular property needs.
Permissions for a new bathroom in Aldershot
Each UK nation sets its own consent rules, and Aldershot is in England. What follows is a plain summary; we check the specifics for your property with the council before pricing anything.
Internal work such as a new kitchen, bathroom, flooring, plastering or decorating does not need planning permission in England, unless the house is listed, when listed building consent may be needed even for internal changes.
Some internal work is covered by Building Regulations: new electrical circuits and work in bathrooms (Part P), new drainage, structural changes, extractor ventilation and any new window. Notifiable work is certified by a registered installer or by building control.
Rules change and every property is different, so we check the planning history and constraints for your address before we quote.
How does the job run?
Survey and measure
First, someone visits your home in Aldershot to see the space, take measurements and note anything that could affect the work, such as access or the condition of what is there. There is no charge for this visit.
Written quote
Next you receive a written quote with a fixed price for the agreed specification. It lists what is included, what is not, and how payments are staged, so you can compare it properly.
Plan and prepare
Before anyone starts, we confirm the programme in writing, check whether consents are required and arrange deliveries. If a skip or scaffolding on the road needs a permit, we apply for it.
On site to finish
During the work we protect the areas around it and tidy up at the end of each day. Once complete, we check the finish, remove our materials and hand over paperwork such as building control sign-off where it applies.

Common questions
Which postcodes in Aldershot do you cover?
We cover GU11, along with the rest of Hampshire. If your postcode is not listed, get in touch anyway: our coverage is UK-wide, and we can usually arrange a survey wherever you live. Enter your postcode in the guide-price tool or contact form and we will confirm.
Can I move the toilet to a different position?
Moving a toilet is usually possible, but it is limited by the soil pipe, which needs a large-diameter pipe with a steady fall to the soil stack. Short moves along the same wall are often simple, while moving it across the room may mean lifting floors or boxing in pipework. A macerator pump is an option where gravity will not work. We check the stack position during the survey.
Is a wet room right for my home?
A wet room is a fully waterproofed room with a shower area that drains through the floor, with no tray or step. It suits accessible bathrooms and modern designs, and makes cleaning easy. It needs a floor with enough depth for a gentle fall to the drain, and careful tanking of the whole room. Timber floors often need strengthening. We check suitability at the survey.
How much does a new bathroom cost?
A typical family bathroom costs £5,600–£13,500 supplied and fitted, including tiling, a new suite, shower, lighting and an extractor fan. Shower rooms and simple en-suites cost a little less, while wet rooms, standalone baths and large-format tiles cost more. Moving the toilet or replacing rotten floorboards adds to the total. We confirm a fixed price for the agreed specification after the survey.

One point of contact manages your project from survey to handover. They schedule the trades working under our contract, keep you updated on progress, and are the person to call with any question.
