London bath and shower screen fitting · South London
We work in Bexley every week — suburban south-east london by the thames — bexleyheath's shops, sidcup's semis and erith's riverside. Bath and shower screen fitting is priced against that reality, not a national average.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pivot screen on a bath | £110 | 1–1.5 hrs | The hinge post is packed and shimmed to a bath edge that is 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. |
| Sliding shower door on a tray | £190 | 2–3 hrs | The track is fixed to the wall tiles and the tray upstand, both 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 fold flush without fouling the tray lip, which takes 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 perfectly plumb against a screeded fall. |
| Re-silicone an existing screen or bath edge | £65 | 45–75 min | Old silicone is cut out, the substrate dried and re-sealed — the single most common reason a bathroom starts to smell of damp. |
Prices are fitting labour with sealant and standard fixings included; the screen or door itself is supplied by you or ordered at cost. Every screen fitted is CE-marked toughened safety glass to BS EN 12150. Tanking or waterproofing repairs behind existing tiles are quoted separately once uncovered. Permits, ULEZ and the Congestion Charge where they apply are itemised.
Working in Bexley
The stock in Bexley is 1930s semis with driveways, post-war estates at thamesmead and riverside new-build at erith, and the mix changes street by street — Belvedere (DA17), Bexley Village (DA5) and Bexleyheath (DA6) each behave differently on the day.
On the ground, straightforward van access and off-street parking; only bexleyheath broadway needs timed loading. Locally that means wide roads with driveways; the riverside industrial roads carry heavy traffic and narrow village lanes with a one-way section; driveways on the newer roads. Bexley sits outside the Congestion Charge zone, so only ULEZ applies to the van and the quote is that much simpler.
Most flats in Bexley are leasehold, and managing agents here routinely ask for a public liability certificate and a method note before a contractor drills anything. We send both with the booking confirmation.
Bexley took its present shape because kentish farmland built over between the wars once the dartford loop and bexleyheath lines opened.

Pivot screen on a bath starts at £110 in Bexley, and the ladder runs up to £65 for the largest job on the table above. Screen type and how far out of level the bath, tray or floor sits. A packed-and-shimmed pivot screen is quick; a floor-fixed wet-room panel with no frame to hide the gap takes the longest to get plumb. The borough is outside the Congestion Charge zone, so there is no charge to pass on — only ULEZ, which our vans are compliant with.
We cover the whole borough: DA1, DA14, DA15, DA16, DA17, DA5, DA6, DA7, DA8 and SE2 and the rest of the Bexley outward codes. On the ground that includes Belvedere, Bexley Village, Bexleyheath, Crayford, Erith and Sidcup.
Most bookings are within a week, sooner for a re-seal call where damp has already started to show. South London is covered by crews already working in the borough, so travel time is not billed on top.
Straightforward van access and off-street parking; only Bexleyheath Broadway needs timed loading. Where a permit or a bay suspension is needed we arrange it with London Borough of Bexley and show the cost in the quote before you agree it. Nothing is added afterwards.
Yes. 1930s semis with driveways, post-war estates at Thamesmead and riverside new-build at Erith is exactly the stock we work in daily. Where there is no lift, the crew size is set by the floor level at quote stage, so a third-floor walk-up is priced as a third-floor walk-up rather than re-quoted on the doorstep.
Fitters carry £1m public liability cover, and every screen fitted is CE-marked toughened safety glass to BS EN 12150 — the standard that means it crumbles into small granules rather than shards if it ever fails. Certificates go out with the booking confirmation, which is what London Borough of Bexley tenancies and most local managing agents ask for.
One fitter for a pivot or fixed screen; two for sliding and bi-fold enclosures and any wet-room panel over 190cm, which is awkward to hold plumb alone. Vehicles are ULEZ-compliant, which matters in every Bexley postcode, and the crew carries everything needed to complete the job in one visit.
Replacing cracked or chipped bath enamel, tile or tray, which is quoted as a separate repair, Tanking or waterproof membrane repair behind tiles found to be leaking and Cutting or reglazing toughened glass on site — a damaged panel is replaced, not cut down. If something on that list turns up in Bexley, we tell you at survey and point you at the right trade rather than taking the booking anyway.

Sulltan is the best handyman in London. He is very reliable and professional. I highly recommend.
I have contacted Handy Man at the beginning of December to help me with moving from one house to another. I needed someone to dismantle and reassemble my furniture in the new house. Handy man provided me with an excellent service. Avin was so understanding of my situation and worked around my schedule to ensure… Read in full →
I booked the services for putting together some new bedroom furniture. This was agreed for 3 pm. I got a call at 3pm to say they were going to be late and be there at 5, they arrived at 5:30. The workmanship and the guys who fitted it was excellent and they were very friendly… Read in full →
