A bathroom is the hardest working room in the house and the one most people put up with for too long. Our bathroom fitters have been installing new bathrooms across Wigan since 1995, and we handle the whole job in-house: the rip out, the plumbing and electrics, plastering, tiling, flooring and the final coat of paint. One team, one point of contact, one price agreed before we start.
Whether you want a complete new bathroom, a downstairs WC, an en suite or a refresh of what you already have, we design it around how your household actually uses the room. Then we build it properly, tidy up after ourselves and leave you with a bathroom that works as well as it looks.
Most bathroom problems come from having too many people involved. The plumber blames the tiler, the tiler is waiting on the plasterer, and nobody is in charge of the finish. We avoid all of that because every trade on your bathroom works for us. There is no subcontracting, so the person who quoted the job is the person responsible for it from the first day to the last.
It starts with a visit to your home in Wigan or the surrounding area. We measure up, talk through what you want to change and what is not working now, and give you honest advice on layout, storage and where the money is best spent. You get a written quote with no hidden extras, backed by a Fair Trading contract and our Peace of Mind Guarantee.
On the job itself we work to a clear schedule so you know when the water will be off and when the room will be back in use. Most full bathroom installations in Wigan take between one and two weeks depending on the size of the room and how much is moving. If you also have a kitchen on the list, our kitchen fitters in Wigan can plan the two together so you only live through the disruption once.
Every new bathroom is different, but the stages are the same. Here is what your quote covers when you use us as your bathroom fitters.
Layout advice, help choosing a suite, tiles and fittings from any supplier you like, and a plan you can picture before anything is ordered.
The old suite, tiles and flooring removed and taken away, with your home protected while we work.
New pipework where the layout changes, moved waste runs, showers, baths and basins connected and tested.
Downlights, extractor fans, shaver sockets, electric showers and underfloor heating, all certified.
Walls and ceilings made good or re-boarded so tiles and paint go onto a flat, sound surface.
Wall and floor tiling, wet room tanking where needed, or vinyl and laminate flooring fitted and sealed.
The suite fitted, silicone done properly, decorating completed and the room cleaned before we hand it back.
A walk-round with you at the end, everything demonstrated and working, and our Peace of Mind Guarantee if anything needs attention later.
Not every bathroom needs ripping back to the brick. If the layout works and the plumbing is sound, a bathroom makeover can transform the room for a fraction of the cost of a full installation. We keep the bath, shower or basin where they are and refresh everything around them.
A typical bathroom refurbishment in Wigan might mean new wall and floor tiles, a replacement shower screen or enclosure, a new vanity unit for storage, fresh sealant and grout, updated lighting and a full redecoration. Swapping a bath for a walk-in shower is one of the most popular makeover jobs we do, particularly for older homeowners who want the room to be safer and easier to use.
Because the same team handles both, we can tell you straight whether a makeover will give you what you want or whether the money is better put towards a full refit. There is no pressure either way. If you are weighing it up, our guide to new kitchen versus kitchen refurbishment covers the same decision for the kitchen and much of the logic applies here too.
Prices vary with the size of the room, how much of the plumbing is moving and the spec of the suite and tiles you choose. The figures below are guide prices for the North West in 2026, supplied and fitted, so you can budget with some confidence before we visit.
| Type of job | Typical scope | Guide price (2026) |
|---|---|---|
| Bathroom makeover | Layout kept, new tiles, flooring, screen, vanity and decorating | £2,500 to £5,000 |
| Standard bathroom installation | Full rip out and new suite in the same layout, mid-range tiles and fittings | £5,000 to £8,500 |
| Full refit with a new layout | Plumbing moved, walk-in shower or wet room area, full tiling, new lighting and extractor | £8,500 to £14,000 |
| Large or high-spec bathroom | Bigger rooms, freestanding baths, underfloor heating, premium tiles and brassware | £14,000 to £20,000+ |
| En suite or downstairs WC | Compact room, new suite, tiling and electrics | £3,500 to £7,000 |
As a rule of thumb, the labour and building work make up around half of a typical bathroom budget, with the suite, tiles and fittings making up the rest. Moving the toilet or the soil stack adds the most to a job, so if you can keep it where it is you will usually save money.
Every quote is itemised so you can see exactly where the money goes, and our finance options let you spread the cost into monthly payments if you would rather not pay in one go.

“Full new bathroom supplied and fitted, and also designed by this company. Way better ideas than I had. Very, very happy with the job.”
ANDREW, VERIFIED GOOGLE REVIEW
“We had the bathroom changed into a utility, and a spare bedroom changed into the bathroom, so a pretty big job. No work was too much for the team, and Joe was only a message away.”
BETH, VERIFIED GOOGLE REVIEW
“Done a lovely job on my bathroom. Clean, tidy and polite.”
NICK, VERIFIED GOOGLE REVIEW
A straightforward like-for-like installation usually takes five to seven working days. A full refit with a new layout, wet room area or moved plumbing is normally ten to fourteen days. We agree the schedule with you before we start and tell you when the water and the toilet will be out of action.
You can, or we can supply everything. Some customers like to choose from a showroom and have us fit it; others prefer us to source the lot so there is one invoice and one person responsible. Either works. We are not tied to any supplier, so the advice you get is about what suits the room, not what earns us a commission.
Yes, and it is one of the most common jobs we do. We remove the bath, make good the floor and walls, fit a low-profile tray or a level-access wet room floor with proper tanking, and tile it through. It makes the room feel bigger and is far easier to step into.
Planning permission is not needed for a bathroom inside your existing home. Building regulations do apply to some of the work, particularly the electrics and any new drainage, and we handle that for you with certified trades and the paperwork to match.
Yes. We fit bathrooms across Wigan and the surrounding towns including Standish, Leigh, Atherton, Bolton, St Helens and Chorley, and further across Lancashire and Greater Manchester for larger projects. If you are not sure, ask and we will tell you straight.
Yes. We offer finance options that let you split the cost into monthly payments. Ask when you request your quote and we will run through what is available.
You are covered by our Peace of Mind Guarantee and a Fair Trading contract. If anything is not right, you call the same people who did the job and we put it right.
Tell us what you have in mind and we will visit, measure up and give you a written quote with no obligation. One team, one contract, one number to call from the first sketch to the finished room.
Call us, email us, or use the contact form and we will come back to you within one working day.

EXCELLENT Based on 42 reviews Sumon Miah2025-06-01Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Brilliant work, would definitely use again and be recommending too Beth Jones2025-05-31Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We used Joe and the team to completely change 2 rooms in our home. Joe came round to look, and instantly gave us lots of ideas for the rooms, and when we got closer to the work commencing sat down with us to pick all the final designs and fittings. We had the bathroom changed into a utility, and a spare bedroom changed into the bathroom, so a pretty big job which involved ripping out all the old to create a blank canvas for the new. Whilst they were doing the work, we also had them take out the boiler and install a new one in a new place in the house, as well as plaster some walls in rooms we were decorating and install spotlights in the hallway. No work was too much for the team, and Joe was only a message away. He answered any questions I had, regardless of the time of day or weekend. Honestly can’t thank them enough, they did such a great job on the rooms! I’ve attached before and after pictures to show the final results! Emma Crawley2025-05-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. NW Reno recently completed a substantial domestic renovation for me, involving back-to-brick re-plastering, re-wiring and re-plumbing of kitchen, living room, and hallways, plus some damp remediation, and installation of new internal & external doors, windows sills, loft hatch, and underfloor heating. The job took longer than expected due to some unforeseen circumstances but Joe was readily contactable throughout and the works were completed to a good standard. Overall we are very happy with the service provided by NW Reno and would recommend them to others. Harvey Ball2025-05-14Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
