Bathroom design and renovation in Cobham
Bathroom design in Cobham is often about a principal suite that feels like a good hotel, plus family and guest bathrooms that are just as well thought through. We design the layout, choose stone, tiles, sanitaryware and lighting, and manage the renovation from strip-out to final fix. Walk-in showers, freestanding baths, double vanities and dressing areas are all on the table, and we plan the plumbing, heating, ventilation and lighting so the finished room works as well as it looks. You see the full design before anything is ordered, with layouts, finishes and fittings presented together, and we produce a detailed schedule for the builder. Underfloor heating, mirror demisters, lighting scenes and storage are all specified, so nothing is left to guesswork.

Homes in Cobham
Larger Cobham houses often have plenty of bathrooms that were all fitted at once and are all now dated. Updating them together keeps the house consistent and is usually more efficient to build. Principal suites can often be improved by borrowing space from an adjoining bedroom to create a proper bathroom and dressing room. Hot water capacity and pressure need checking when you add or upgrade several bathrooms at once. Older cottages in Church Cobham bring the opposite challenge: small rooms that need clever planning.
Local knowledge
Planning and local notes
Cobham is in Elmbridge. The historic core around St Andrew's Church is the Cobham conservation area, and there are separate conservation areas at Plough Corner, Downside Village and Stoke d'Abernon. Much of the land around Cobham is Green Belt, which limits how far some houses can be extended. Several private estates also carry covenants or estate rules. We check all three before any drawing starts.

FAQs
Questions we're asked
Can you renovate several bathrooms at once?
Yes. Doing them together is often more efficient, and we design them as a family so the house feels consistent from room to room.
Can you design a principal suite with a dressing room?
Yes. We look at the whole first floor and often borrow space from a neighbouring room to create a generous bathroom and dressing area.
How long does a bathroom renovation take?
A typical bathroom renovation takes about two to three weeks, depending on what you want and how much remodelling is involved.
Can you design a bathroom without doing the renovation?
Yes. With design only, we hand you everything your builder needs: layout drawings, elevations, and a full schedule of tiles, fittings and finishes, with our trade discounts passed on to you. You appoint and manage your own builder. With design and renovation, we manage the work ourselves — trusted trades, regular site visits and one point of contact from first sketch to the finished room.
