Price of a fitted
wall-hung toilet.

In our quotes, the wall-hung toilet almost always appears as a set. It includes a support frame 112 cm high, the metal frame that carries the pan and contains the cistern; a concealed cistern 12 cm thick; a flush plate; and the wall-hung pan with its seat, often rimless to make cleaning easier.

What the line does not always say is where the labour is. On 24 of our projects, the toilet is priced “supplied and fitted” on a single line. On 23 others, the equipment is priced as supply only, and its fitting is part of a plumbing lump sum covering all the sanitary fittings on one level: it is impossible to extract the share for the toilet alone. Some quotes combine the two from one floor to the next.

Before comparing two quotes, look at which side the fitting is on. A €700 “supply only” toilet and a €900 “supplied and fitted” toilet do not say the same thing.

Each range below covers the most common case in our 2024-2026 quotes in Savoie and Haute-Savoie, rounded and excluding tax. The price including VAT is calculated at 10%, the rate for renovating a home completed more than two years ago.

The most expensive sets in our survey, around €1,200 excl. VAT, correspond to higher-range pans and plates, or to a line that already includes the connection to a drain that has to be reworked. Conversely, our quotes almost never fall below €650 excl. VAT for a complete set.

Keeping or moving the drain. The most economical case: the new toilet takes the place of the old one, and our plumbers connect to the existing drain. Moving the toilet means reaching the soil pipe with a continuous slope, in 100 mm diameter. Depending on the distance, it is necessary to run through a partition, raise the floor or cut through the slab to the floor below; this work then appears on a separate line.

The wall that receives the frame. A masonry wall carries the frame without difficulty. On a lightweight partition, a free-standing frame is fitted, which takes the load at floor level, and the framework of the partition is reinforced; several of our quotes include this reinforcement in the casing item.

Casing and finish. The frame has to disappear behind a plasterboard box, moisture-resistant in a wet room, then under tiling or paint. If you tile the section of wall behind the toilet, the tiling is priced per square metre on top: our guide to the price of laying tiles gives our ranges.

The hand basin. In a separate toilet, it is often added to the same job. It needs one more water supply and one more drain, to be prepared before closing the box: this is the right time to decide.

1. Shut off the water and remove the old toilet, then temporarily cap the drain to prevent odours rising during the work.

2. Adapt the drain and the cold water supply to the exact position of the future frame.

3. Fix the frame, to the wall or to the floor if it is free-standing, and adjust its height before final tightening.

4. Test the connections before closing up. A leak discovered after the tiling has been laid costs a whole box: this check is not to be skipped.

5. Build the box, treat the joints, then lay the tiling or paint.

6. Fix the pan on its studs, fit the flush plate and adjust the flushing mechanism.

The cistern mechanism remains accessible behind the flush plate: if the flush leaks or the filling does not stop, we work through this hatch without breaking anything.

Take the case we meet most often: a floor-standing toilet to be replaced in the same place, against a partition that has to be cased in. Adding up our ranges — removal (€100 to €250), wall-hung toilet supplied and fitted (€700 to €1,000) and casing box (€250 to €650) — gives €1,050 to €1,900 excl. VAT, i.e. €1,155 to €2,090 incl. VAT at 10%. With the most frequent values from our quotes, the total comes to around €1,300 excl. VAT.

This is a calculation made from our prices item by item, not the price of a particular project. It includes neither tiling, nor paint, nor moving the drain. If the toilet is part of a completely redone bathroom, our guide to bathroom renovation gives the overall budget.

Our quotes include very few floor-standing toilets (four projects) and only two macerator toilet lines: that is too few to publish an honest range, so we do not give one.

What we can say about the macerator: it is justified only when no gravity drainage is possible, for example in a basement below the level of the soil pipe. It needs its own electrical supply, which our quotes price with a dedicated socket fitted by our electricians.

In a home completed more than two years ago, a wall-hung toilet supplied and fitted by the company falls under 10% VAT, equipment included. A toilet that you buy yourself stays at 20%; only its fitting then benefits from the reduced rate. Since 1 March 2025, a mention on the quote or invoice replaces the former certificate.

Special cases (new-build home, commercial premises, mixed work) are detailed in our guide to VAT on renovation work.
