Moving bathroom downstairs

[Gas1883]

The people who owned our house previously to us moved the bathroom upstairs into the 3 rd bedroom & extended the old bathroom downstairs .
We have found that the old extended bathroom is very thin so you can’t really do anything with it , so are thinking of moving the bathroom back downstairs & reinstating the 3 rd bedroom .
I know this is the opposite of what most people would think sensible but I think it would work better for us , we not concerned about how it would effect selling the house as all the houses are downstairs bathrooms & seem to sell ok .
I’m just wondering what the cost of this would be ? There should be plumbing already downstairs as it was a bathroom previously .
Thanks

A lot of variables
Bathroom finish/cost will vary enormously, also trade rates depend upon area.
I’d guess £5k as a minimum.

Depending on finish...

Shower/toilet/sink/bath = 3k
Tiles/taps/etc = 1k
Tiling/fitting/finishing = 6k

Rough total, 10k.

Bathrooms are like kitchens, you can do very basic for not a lot or spend silly amounts. I’d guess at between £5-£10k. You should apply for building regs for both ‘new’ rooms.

Almost at the end of a bathroom refit. Room (2.6 x 1.9) was completely gutted, including ceiling. It will end up costing just under £10k.

Fixtures, fittings and tiles, just over £3k.
Electrician and plasterer, £700
Labour, builder/plumber, £4k
Materials and waste disposal, £2k.

Materials cost was the real shocker. I sourced most of it myself in an attempt to keep control of the costs. Tile adhesive, grout and silicone sealant came to over £200, £150 for paint. Couple of hundred for waste/soil pipe/fittings.

Labour was quite reasonable, around £25 an hour for the skilled guys at their day rates.

Hey man, can you leave a bathroom upstairs but only toulet/ sink?

Make it smaller and reinstate bed 3 around it somehow - you dont want to be going downstairs in the middle of the night to pee
