Quick answer: Bathroom plumbing costs vary a lot. A toilet replacement runs £80-£150, and a full bathroom installation (plumbing only) is £400-£800. I handle the pipes, wastes, and water supply. You arrange tiling and decorating separately, or I can recommend people.
Whether you’re fitting a new bathroom, replacing old fixtures, or fixing a leak that won’t stop, I handle the plumbing side of things. That means the water supply pipes, the waste connections, and making sure everything drains properly.
I’m not a bathroom fitter in the sense of doing tiling, flooring, or decorating. But I work alongside trades who do, and I’m happy to recommend people if you need a full bathroom refit.
Here’s what you’re looking at for common jobs:
| Job | Typical Price |
|---|---|
| Toilet replacement (supply + fit) | £150 - £250 |
| Basin replacement | £120 - £200 |
| Bath replacement (plumbing only) | £150 - £300 |
| Shower installation (electric) | £180 - £280 |
| Shower installation (mixer/thermostatic) | £200 - £350 |
| Full bathroom plumbing (new build/renovation) | £400 - £800 |
| Tap replacement | £60 - £100 |
Prices depend on how complex the job is, access, and the state of your existing pipework.
I fit all types:
Common toilet problems I fix:
I install pedestal basins, wall-hung basins, vanity unit basins, and cloakroom basins. The job involves connecting the water supplies, fitting the taps, and running the waste.
If you’re buying your own basin, check the tap holes match your taps (1 hole, 2 hole, or 3 hole) before I arrive. It saves time and avoids problems.
Fitting a bath involves:
Standard baths are straightforward. Freestanding baths need floor-mounted or wall-mounted taps, which means running pipes to different places, so factor that into your planning.
Electric showers — I can install electric showers, but the electrical connection needs a qualified electrician. I do the plumbing, they do the wiring.
Mixer showers — These take water from your hot and cold supplies. They work well if you have good pressure and flow from your boiler or cylinder.
Thermostatic showers — These hold a set temperature even when someone flushes a toilet elsewhere. Worth it for busy households.
Shower enclosures and trays — I can fit the tray and waste. The enclosure is usually easy enough to fit yourself, but I can do it if needed.
For a complete bathroom refit, the usual order is:
I’m happy to work around your tiler and electrician, or I can recommend trades I’ve worked with before.
Not everything needs replacing. I regularly fix:
I do bathroom plumbing across Middlesbrough, Stockton, Redcar, Thornaby, Guisborough, Billingham, and surrounding areas.
Either works. I’m happy to fit fixtures you’ve bought, or I can supply quality products at trade prices. If you’re buying your own, check the dimensions and compatibility before ordering.
A toilet or basin swap takes 1-2 hours. Full bathroom plumbing (first and second fix) takes 2-3 days, spread across the renovation.
No, I stick to the plumbing. But I can recommend tilers I’ve worked with.
I guarantee my work. If a joint leaks or a connection fails within 12 months, I’ll come back and fix it at no charge.
Yes. I can do the plumbing for wet rooms, including the floor drain (sometimes called a linear drain). The tanking and tiling are done by others.

I had a leak coming from the shower in my en suite, I immediately called Zak who covers emergency callouts as it was after normal working hours. He was round within 30 mins which was unbelievable, he was very professional and give me advise on what to do in the mean time before he arrived and solved the issue fully when he arrived to the house.
Zak installed a new boiler and also first fix bathroom pipes - I woukd highly recommend Zak and I am very happy so much that I have booked him for another job in July, thank you
Zak came out to replace two taps on my Nana’s bath, as the old ones had become loose and difficult for her to operate. … The new taps are much more powerful and, most importantly, are a lot easier for my Nana to use.
