A bathroom renovation is one of the most popular home improvements — and one of the most variable in cost. Prices in Hampshire can range from a few thousand pounds for a basic refresh to £15,000 or more for a full high-specification refit. Here's what drives the cost, and what you can realistically expect to pay.

What affects the cost?

• The size of the bathroom
• Whether you're moving any plumbing or keeping it in place
• The quality of fixtures and fittings you choose
• Whether tiling is included and how complex the tiling pattern is
• Whether electrical work is required (heated towel rails, lighting, extractor fans)
• The number of tradespeople involved and their individual rates

Typical cost ranges

For a small bathroom with a straightforward layout and mid-range fittings, expect to pay £3,000–£5,000 for supply and fit. A medium-sized family bathroom with quality fittings typically costs £5,000–£9,000. A large or en-suite bathroom with premium fittings and bespoke tiling can reach £10,000–£15,000 or more.

Getting the best value

Get at least three quotes from vetted local tradespeople. Make sure each quote covers the same specification so you're comparing like for like. Be wary of quotes significantly below the others — they often reflect corners being cut on materials or labour.
