Bath and shower screen fitting London
Pivot and fixed bath screens, sliding and bi-fold shower doors, and floor-fixed wet-room panels fitted across all 33 London boroughs, packed and shimmed level against baths and trays that are almost never dead level themselves. Every screen is CE-marked toughened safety glass, drilled into tile with a pilot hole rated for porcelain rather than standard masonry bits that crack the glaze.
London pricing
| Job | London from | Typical time | Why the London price differs |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pivot screen on a bath | £110 | 1–1.5 hrs | The hinge post is packed and shimmed to a bath edge that's rarely dead level, then silicone-sealed to the tile. |
| Fixed bath screen with return panel | £150 | 1.5–2 hrs | Two panels and a bracing bar have to be squared to each other before either is sealed, or the return panel gapes at one edge. |
| Sliding shower door on a tray | £190 | 2–3 hrs | The track is fixed to both the wall tiles and the tray upstand, drilled without cracking porcelain, then the rollers are set to run true. |
| Bi-fold shower door, enclosure | £220 | 2.5–3.5 hrs | Two hinged leaves have to fold flush without fouling the tray lip, which needs more adjustment than a single sliding panel. |
| Wet-room glass panel, floor-fixed | £240 | 3–4 hrs | No frame to hide behind — the channel and the panel both have to be plumb against a screeded fall, with nothing to correct a small error afterwards. |
| Re-silicone an existing screen or bath edge | £65 | 45–75 min | Old silicone is cut out and the substrate dried before resealing, which is the single most common fix for a bathroom that's started to smell of damp. |

Working in London
Cast-iron and reglazed roll-top baths in Victorian and Edwardian terraces across Camden, Islington and Southwark commonly sit slightly out of level along the rim after a century of subfloor movement, which a standard flat-packed pivot screen isn't designed to accommodate.
We check the bath edge before ordering and pack and shim the hinge post until the screen itself reads level, even where the bath underneath it does not.
Older ceramic tile common in unmodernised London bathrooms chips easily under a standard masonry bit, while newer large-format porcelain tile is harder but more brittle at the edges, and either can crack if drilled without a slow pilot hole.
We match the drilling method to the tile in front of us rather than run one setting for every bathroom, which is the step most DIY screen fittings skip.
Loft and basement conversions across inner London increasingly include a wet room with a screeded fall to a floor drain, and a floor-fixed glass panel there has no frame to mask a channel that isn't quite plumb, unlike a framed screen over a bath.
We check the channel and floor fall before fitting rather than assume the screed was laid to the panel manufacturer's tolerance, since correcting it after the glass is in is far harder than before.
A high share of London homes are flats, often with limited or no extractor fan in the bathroom, and condensation there breaks down silicone sealant faster than in a well-ventilated house.
That's why a re-seal-only visit is one of our most booked jobs in flatted blocks — we cut out the failed silicone fully and dry the substrate rather than sealing over damp that's already trapped underneath.

London questions
A pivot screen on a bath starts at £110. A fixed screen with a return panel is from £150, a sliding shower door from £190, a bi-fold door from £220 and a floor-fixed wet-room panel from £240. A re-seal-only visit on an existing screen is £65.
Not with the method we use. Every hole starts with a slow pilot drilled with a bit rated for porcelain or ceramic glaze, which is the step that stops tiles cracking — the most common DIY mistake we're called to fix.
Yes. Every screen fitted is CE-marked toughened safety glass to BS EN 12150, which is designed to crumble into small granules rather than sharp shards if it's ever broken.
Yes. Cast-iron and reglazed baths in older London stock are rarely level along the rim, so the hinge post is packed and shimmed until the screen itself reads plumb, regardless of the bath edge underneath.
Yes, from £65. We cut out the old, often mould-affected silicone, dry the substrate fully and reseal with neutral-cure sealant, which is what actually stops the smell and staining recurring.
Yes, from £240. We check the floor's screeded fall and the drain channel for plumb before fitting, since a frameless panel has nothing to hide a gap behind unlike a framed bath screen.
A pivot screen typically takes 1–1.5 hours. A sliding door on a tray is 2–3 hours and a bi-fold enclosure or wet-room panel is 2.5–4 hours, since both need more adjustment to run or seal correctly.
You can supply your own screen or door, or we can order it at cost. The prices quoted are the fitting labour, sealant and standard fixings.

Sulltan is the best handyman in London. He is very reliable and professional. I highly recommend.
I have recently had a lot of work done in my small flat which has left it grubby and, following surgery, I haven't been able to clean up myself. I booked a deep clean and a carpet shampoo. The team arrived as scheduled and started work, room by room. They were friendly, efficient and considerate.… Read in full →
