Design Consultant
Our team lives and works in Essex. They know local properties, the best suppliers, and what works in homes around here.
Most bathroom companies sell you products and leave the rest to you. We do it differently. We design your bathroom around your space — whether that's a master ensuite, family bathroom, wetroom, shower room, guest ensuite or cloakroom — source every product, coordinate delivery, and stay involved right through installation with your own tradesperson or one of our approved fitters.
You get a complete 3D design before anything is ordered. A fixed-price specification with no surprises. Installation drawings and technical support so your fitter has everything they need. And we're a phone call away throughout the build.
The design service is free. You only pay for the products you choose.

Every project follows the same structured process, whether you're using your own fitter or ours. Each stage is agreed before the next begins.
Visit our Leigh-on-Sea showroom or we come to you. We listen to what you're looking for, discuss your budget, and agree on priorities. No pressure, no commitment.
We visit your home in Southend, take precise laser measurements, and check everything technical — plumbing, electrics, ventilation. This is how we make sure the design works perfectly in your space.
We create 3D visuals so you can see exactly how it will look. You choose every tile, tap, and finish. Nothing is ordered until you're completely happy — and the price is fixed at this point.

We place all orders, track stock, and coordinate delivery to match your installation schedule. No chasing suppliers, no missing parts.
Your fitter gets detailed installation drawings, product specifications, and fitting guidance. We stay available throughout the build to answer questions and make sure everything matches the design.
Once your bathroom is finished, we hand over care guides and product manuals. All manufacturer warranties are registered. If anything needs attention down the line, we're still here.
“Fantastic team who helped us from design stage all the way through to completion. The quality of the work and products are superb. We would use them again for future works.”

However your bathroom gets built, we're behind the project. Here's how most of our clients work with us.
Your Own Tradesperson
Great — we'll work with them directly. Our designer can meet them on site, brief them on the specification, and we provide everything they need to install to the design exactly.
Our Approved Installers
We'll match you with a vetted, insured installer from our approved network. They already know our products and standards, and we stay involved from start to finish.
We also offer a fully project-managed option for clients who'd like us to handle every aspect of the build, including a 3-year workmanship warranty.
Our design service is free — the consultation, home survey, 3D visuals and technical drawings are all included at no cost. You only pay for the products you choose.
For products only — cloakrooms start from around £3,000. Full bathrooms typically fall between £6,000 and £15,000+ depending on room size, specification level and product choices. That's the cost of everything we design and supply: sanitaryware, brassware, tiles, lighting, heating, furniture and accessories.
Installation is separate and depends on who does the work and the scope of your project. If you use our approved installers, we can provide an indication of installation costs during the design phase.
The most accurate budgeting happens once scope is defined. Use our Price Guide for room-specific product pricing, or book a consultation for a tailored quote.
Whether you're using your own tradesperson or one of our approved installers, they get everything they need to deliver the design precisely.
Precise layout drawings showing every product position, pipe run, and electrical point — nothing left to guesswork.
Full technical data for every product — dimensions, clearances, water pressure requirements — so installation is precise.
We stay available throughout the build. If a question comes up on site, we're a phone call away — and we check in to make sure everything's going smoothly.
Every product in your bathroom is chosen for durability, design integrity, and long-term performance — not because it's on promotion. All available to view in our showroom.
A selection of completed bathroom design projects across South Essex.
Southend's housing stock is varied — from Victorian and Edwardian terraces in Westcliff and along the clifftop conservation areas to 1930s semis in Prittlewell, modern family homes across Thorpe Bay and seafront apartments in the town centre. Each presents different challenges when it comes to bathroom design.
Older properties often have restricted void depth, legacy pipe routes, and uneven walls. Seafront homes benefit from materials selected for long-term performance in a coastal environment. Larger family homes in Thorpe Bay and Shoeburyness may need multiple bathrooms designed as a coordinated suite.
We account for all of this during the design phase — before products are ordered and before your fitter starts work. It's the difference between a bathroom that looks good on paper and one that actually works in your home.

David Sims — Benfleet
“I had an amazing experience with Bowmans. From start to finish, they were professional, attentive and truly passionate about creating the perfect design. The team listened to my ideas and went above and beyond to bring my vision to life. The quality of their work is outstanding, and I couldn’t be happier with the result. If you’re looking for a company that combines expertise with genuine care for their clients, Bowmans is the one to choose.”
Katy Keiller — Grays, Essex
“So happy that we found Bowmans to create our dream bathroom. We really enjoyed the process of visiting the showroom, chatting through the design with Jonnie and Katie — who had some great ideas within our budget — seeing tiles, taps etc in person and then seeing the detailed designs before approval so we could be sure everything was how we wanted it.
The install process was also great, Paul did a wonderful meticulous job ensuring no corners were cut and the finish is perfect.”
C Golding — Ingatestone
