Full Bathroom Renovations

Full Refurbishments from £3,600

A full bathroom renovation from AV Modern Bathrooms covers everything from the first measure to the final checks: design, strip-out, plumbing and electrical work, waterproofing, tiling or wall panels, the new suite and the finishing. One team plans and fits the room, working from our showroom in St Helens across Merseyside, Cheshire and Greater Manchester.

How a Full Renovation Runs

Free Home Visit

We measure up, check pipe routes and ventilation, and talk through what the room can take. You get a written scope and quotation.

Design and Choices

Choose suites, tiles and panels at our St Helens showroom, with a layout planned around the way you use the room.

Around Four Days on Site

A typical full renovation takes around four days once work starts. That is an estimate: wet rooms and layout changes take longer.

Checks and Handover

We test water flow, drainage, seals and fittings, and the 12-month guarantee on materials and workmanship runs from completion.

What a Full Bathroom Renovation Includes

Every renovation is quoted from a survey, so the scope is written down before anything is ordered. A typical full renovation includes:

Strip-out of the old suite, tiles and flooring, and removal of the waste
First and second fix plumbing, including moving pipes and wastes where the layout changes
Electrical work such as lighting, extractor fans and shaver points
Boarding, levelling and tanking of wet areas
Wall and floor tiling, or PVC and SPC wall panels
Fitting the bath or shower, toilet, basin, furniture and towel radiator
Sealing, trims and final checks before handover

If you only need part of this, a bathroom refurbishment can update the room without changing the layout. For a level-access shower or more space around the toilet and basin, see our accessible bathrooms page.

Prices, Timescales and Guarantee

As a guide, full bathroom refurbishments start from £3,600, and accessible bathrooms with level access start from £4,700. These are starting points rather than quotations: what a job costs depends on the size of the room, whether plumbing or electrics have to move, the tiling area and the suite you choose, so the only accurate figure is the written quotation you get after a free survey.

A typical full bathroom renovation takes around four days on site once work starts. That is an estimate rather than a guarantee: wet rooms, layout changes and structural work take longer, and we will tell you if something we find on site changes the plan.

12-Month Guarantee

Materials and workmanship are guaranteed for twelve months from completion, subject to the terms supplied with your quotation.

£1 Million Public Liability Insurance

We carry £1 million of public liability insurance on every job we take on.

Planning, Building Regulations and Your Property

Many like-for-like bathroom replacements fall outside planning and building regulations approval, but moving a soil connection, altering circuits, removing part of a wall or forming a new bathroom commonly do need approval. The property owner is responsible for confirming their own position with local authority building control before work begins. The Planning Portal guide to kitchens and bathrooms and the GOV.UK building regulations guidance are good places to start.

Private tenants need the landlord’s written permission, and council and housing association tenants need their landlord’s written approval. Leaseholders in a flat usually need freeholder or managing agent consent, and listed buildings and conservation areas carry a further layer. None of these replace building regulations approval, and we cannot obtain any of them on your behalf. This is general information, not advice about your property.
