A bathroom installation replaces your old suite with new sanitaryware, a bath or shower, tiling and fittings, including the plumbing, electrics, ventilation and waterproofing needed for a complete, watertight room.
We offer a new bathroom across Worcestershire, and Redditch is one of the places we cover, along with nearby Bromsgrove, Shirley and Droitwich. Before anything is agreed we visit, check the existing structure and talk through your options. You then receive a written quote setting out the full scope; for most homes in the West Midlands it sits within £4,900–£12,000 including VAT.

Homes in Worcestershire
Worcester has Georgian and Victorian streets and interwar suburbs, black-and-white timber framing survives in many villages, and Malvern has Victorian villas, some built in Malvern stone. Redditch was expanded as a new town from the 1960s, Kidderminster has carpet-era terraces, and Bromsgrove and Evesham mix older centres with newer estates.
The Severn and Teme flood regularly, and the Malvern Hills are more exposed to wind and rain than the Vale of Evesham.
Whatever era your Redditch home dates from, we plan a new bathroom around how it is actually built rather than a one-size-fits-all specification.
Do you need permission in Redditch?
Because Redditch falls under England's rules, the guidance below is the version relevant to you. Before sending a price, we check your property's position with the council.
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?
Free site survey
It starts with a survey at the property, free of charge. We check condition, access and services, ask how you want the finished result to look, and answer any questions you have about a new bathroom.
Written quote
We turn the survey notes into a written quote. The price is fixed for the specification we agree, and the document sets out materials, scope and payment stages in plain language.
Plan and prepare
Next comes planning the work itself. We set a start date that suits you, line up the right trades, and make sure any approvals for a new bathroom are in place before the first day on site.
The work itself
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.

Frequently asked questions
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 will a new bathroom cost in Redditch?
As a guide, expect to pay £4,900–£12,000 including VAT for a new bathroom in Redditch. That range is adjusted for the West Midlands, which runs about 2% below the national guide. Where your project lands depends on size, materials, access and the condition of what is already there. We confirm a fixed price in writing after a free survey of your home.
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.
How long will a new bathroom take?
On a typical home, allow 1–2 weeks per bathroom. Larger projects, older buildings and extra work found once things are opened up can extend that, while simpler jobs may be shorter. Your quote includes an estimate of time on site, and your point of contact keeps you updated on the programme as the work progresses.
Do I need a new boiler for a new shower?
You do not always need a new boiler for a new shower, but your hot water system decides what kind of shower will work well. Combi boilers suit mixer showers directly from the mains. Tank-fed systems may need a pump for good pressure, and electric showers heat their own water. We check your boiler, cylinder and water pressure during the survey and recommend a shower to match.
