Bathroom Design Bishop's Stortford Rejig Interiors

The cost of a new bathroom depends on its size, specification, layout and the amount of work required behind the finishes. Moving plumbing, upgrading electrics, improving ventilation, preparing walls and floors, waterproofing and installing bespoke features will all influence the final investment.

Bathrooms are among the most technically demanding rooms within a home. They combine water, electricity, heating, drainage and ventilation, so the elements you cannot immediately see are just as important as the sanitaryware, tiles and furniture you choose.

At Rejig Interiors, we design each bathroom individually rather than working from a standard package price. During your consultation, we will discuss your priorities and intended investment, assess the existing room and explain what can realistically be achieved. This allows us to develop a considered design that encompasses quality products that will last.

We do not work to one fixed design style, every bathroom is created around the architecture of the property, the character of the client and how the room needs to run from day to day.

Our designs can range from contemporary and minimalist bathrooms to modern traditional interiors, period-sensitive schemes, bold colour-led designs and calming spa-inspired retreats. We can also combine influences to create something more individual, rather than asking you to choose from a predetermined collection.

During your consultation, we will uncover your preferred style and if you appoint Rejig Interiors to design and install your bathroom we will develop a scheme based on your aspirational images.

Absolutely. This is something we uncover during the pre-consultation and consultation stages. Together, we explore the colours, materials, finishes and design details you are naturally drawn to, alongside the character of your home and how you want the bathroom to look.

You do not need to arrive with a clearly defined style or know the correct design terminology. We will help you identify what appeals to you, refine your ideas and develop a cohesive bathroom design that feels personal, considered and entirely suited to your home.

Many independent bathroom fitters and plumbers are exceptionally skilled at installing bathrooms. Their expertise lies in delivering the construction and installation to a high standard.

Our role begins much earlier.

Rather than starting with products or simply replacing an existing bathroom with a newer version, every project begins with a Bathroom Design Strategy Session. During this consultation, we take time to understand how you and your family use the room, identify what isn't working and explore opportunities that are often overlooked.

Sometimes the existing layout is not the best solution. More often, however, thoughtful planning uncovers ways to improve the room that would never have been considered if the project had simply followed the existing plumbing or layout.

We don't believe a bathroom renovation should be limited to replacing sanitaryware, furniture and tiles with newer versions. Instead, we look at the room as a whole, asking how it can function better, feel more spacious, provide improved storage and enhance your home. 

Every element is considered as part of one complete design.

This includes the layout, flooring, wall finishes, lighting, electrical planning, ventilation, heating, bespoke storage, brassware, sanitaryware, mirrors, decoration and the countless technical details that ensure everything works together seamlessly. We also consider how each component connects both visually and technically, creating a bathroom that performs for many years to come.

Our independence also allows us to specify products based on quality, longevity and suitability rather than being restricted to a particular supplier or manufacturer. Having spent many years working alongside leading bathroom manufacturers, developers and specification teams, we understand the engineering, research and technical development that separates well-designed products from those that simply look similar.

We continue to invest in that knowledge by visiting industry exhibitions, meeting manufacturers and keeping up to date with new materials, technologies and innovations. This enables us to recommend products because we genuinely believe they are the right solution for your home, not because they happen to be available in a catalogue.

Ultimately, the difference is simple.

An installer is primarily responsible for constructing your bathroom. We are responsible for ensuring the bathroom is worth constructing in the first place. By carefully considering every decision before work begins, we create bathrooms that are not only installed to a high standard but are thoughtfully designed.

Of course, with our specialist knowledge, we can specify products, fittings and layouts that work effectively within even the most challenging room.

We use advanced measuring equipment to accurately capture awkward angles, sloping ceilings, alcoves and other architectural details. We also design in virtual reality, allowing you to experience the proposed bathroom before work begins and helping us refine every decision with greater accuracy. This combination of technical expertise, precise surveying and immersive design gives us a distinct advantage when planning bathrooms where every millimetre matters.

Loft conversions are a particularly good example. Designing a bathroom within the roof of a property requires careful consideration of head height, sloping ceilings, drainage, ventilation, lighting and the positioning of sanitaryware to make the room comfortable and practical. With thoughtful planning, these challenging rooms can become some of the most characterful and functional bathrooms in the home.

In many cases, yes. However, the extent to which a bathroom can be reconfigured will depend on the position of the soil stack, existing pipework and the floor construction.

The soil stack is the vertical waste pipe that connects to the outlet from the toilet. Its location will usually influence where the toilet can be positioned, as the waste pipe requires the correct route and gradient to drain effectively.

Once we have established the most suitable position for the toilet, we can explore alternative locations for the bath, shower, basin, storage and heating. During the survey and design process, we will assess what is technically achievable and develop the most effective layout for the room.

We do. Rejig Interiors specifies and supplies the products and materials included within your bathroom design, ensuring every element is compatible, suitable for the project and coordinated correctly.

Your bathroom products are scheduled for delivery in line with the agreed installation programme, so they arrive when the project is ready to begin.

To protect the integrity of the design, installation and product warranties, we do not install client-supplied products or substitute items sourced elsewhere.

Yes, you can appoint your own bathroom installer. They must hold suitable insurance and have the necessary experience and qualifications to carry out the work safely within your property.

We will coordinate the delivery of your bathroom products in line with the agreed programme, ready for your contractor to begin the installation. Your installer will then be responsible for managing the works on site and ensuring the bathroom is installed in accordance with the approved design and product specifications.

It is worth remembering that installers and interior designers approach projects from different perspectives. An experienced installer's priority is to construct the bathroom safely and efficiently, whereas our role is to explore every opportunity to improve the room before installation begins.

Occasionally, an installer may suggest that a particular idea is impractical or not recommended. Sometimes they are absolutely right, particularly where structural, plumbing or building regulations are involved. In other cases, however, the proposal may simply require more extensive planning, additional coordination or specialist trades to achieve successfully. This is why we invest so much time in the design stage, ensuring every idea has been carefully considered and technically resolved before work begins on site.

Please note that some product guarantees require installation to be carried out by a suitably experienced installer and in accordance with the manufacturer's installation guidelines. Failure to follow these requirements may affect the validity of the warranty.

 Most of our bathroom renovations take between two and four weeks from the start of installation through to completion.

The exact timescale will depend on the location of the project, the complexity of the design and the amount of preparation required. Changes to plumbing, electrics, ventilation, flooring or the existing layout may extend the programme.

We deliver bathroom projects across Bishop’s Stortford, Hertfordshire, Saffron Walden, Sawbridgeworth, Stansted Mountfitchet, Much Hadham, Cambridgeshire, Essex and London, with a tailored schedule prepared before work begins so you know what to expect at each stage.

Yes. We design steam rooms and spa-inspired bathrooms even bathrooms with ice baths, if you have the budget we can incorporate whatever you need.

Every element is considered, including the steam generator, waterproofing, ventilation, drainage, lighting, heating, seating, materials and product specification. We also assess how heat, moisture and condensation will affect the room, ensuring the chosen finishes and fittings are suitable for the environment.

Whether you are looking for a dedicated steam room or a bathroom with a calmer, more luxurious feel, we will develop a bathroom that reflects the routine and the experience you want to create.

There are many decisions that can influence the success of a bathroom renovation, from choosing the wrong layout and overlooking storage to poor lighting, inadequate ventilation and selecting products based solely on price.

To help you avoid costly mistakes, we have created a comprehensive guide covering the most common pitfalls homeowners encounter, along with practical advice on how to plan your project with confidence.

 Choosing a toilet isn't simply about appearance. The design of the pan, flushing technology, seat quality, hinge mechanism and long-term availability of replacement parts can all have a significant impact on everyday use and maintenance.

To help you make an informed decision, we've written a comprehensive guide explaining everything you need to know before purchasing a toilet.
