How it works
How bath and shower screen fitting works in Camden Town
Five steps, the same on every NW1 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Council and housing-association blocks built from precast concrete and dense block on these streets — which is why London Borough of Camden kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded is what we plan for here.
Step 1
Measure and level-check
Bath, tray or wet-room floor measured, and how far out of level it is checked before ordering, so packers and shims are ready on the day.
Step 2
Mark and pilot-drill tile
Positions marked, then pilot-drilled slowly into the glaze with a masonry bit rated for porcelain, which is the step that stops tiles cracking.
Step 3
Fix and pack level
Hinges, tracks or channels fixed and packed so the screen itself reads level even when the bath edge does not.
Step 4
Seal
Neutral-cure silicone run to the tile and the bath or tray, tooled to a clean bead and left to cure before use.
Step 5
Test and clear
Door or panel run through its full movement, checked for drips at the seal, and off-cuts and packaging removed.
Why choose us
Why Camden Town customers book us
What follows is specific to Camden Town: its walls, its access and the paperwork Camden agents ask for.
Camden Town walls, not generic walls
We expect precast concrete panels and dense blockwork; locally that also means often with surface conduit, measured on the walk in from Camden Town (Northern) rather than assumed from a map in NW1, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Camden Town gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, and with 43% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does.
Insured and documented
Fitters carry £5m 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.
Crew sized to the job
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. Market congestion all weekend, seven-day CPZ and narrow streets where a Luton has to double-park with a marshal.
Fixed prices
Bath and shower screen fitting prices in Camden Town
Fixed prices for NW1 and the rest of Camden. 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.
| 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. |

Scope
What's included in Camden Town
The same scope across NW1, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- Standard on Camden bookings: drilling set for porcelain and ceramic tile with a pilot to stop the bit skating off the glaze, with 2,940 households in this neighbourhood, it is the question we are asked most
- Screen or door packed and shimmed level even where the bath or tray is not, checked on every NW1 visit
- In Camden Town: neutral-cure silicone sealant used against tile and enamel, which will not corrode chrome fittings, sized for the market congestion all weekend, seven-day cpz and narrow streets where a luton has to double-park with a marshal

Not included
- Replacing cracked or chipped bath enamel, tile or tray, which is quoted as a separate repair, and we will say so before the NW1 visit rather than on the day

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 →

Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Camden Town — the numbers that actually change a bath and shower screen fitting quote.
In Camden Town (NW1) the split is 86% flats to 14% houses over 2,940 households, and the stock is mainly Victorian.
With 43% private renting against 26% owner-occupied, most NW1 bookings land on a move-in day rather than a weekend.
Expect precast concrete panels and dense blockwork; locally that also means often with surface conduit, measured on the walk in from Camden Town (Northern) rather than assumed from a map behind the plaster in NW1. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why Camden Town gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, and with 43% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does is the fault we are called back to undo.
Camden Town sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate. What shapes the job more is the neighbourhood itself — market crowds, canal-side stalls and Victorian terraces packed with shared houses and flats — which is why a NW1 quote is not a Camden average.
On access, market congestion all weekend, seven-day CPZ and narrow streets where a Luton has to double-park with a marshal — one reason 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. Fitters travelling in use Camden Town (Northern).
