Overview
Bath and shower screen fitting in St Paul's EC4, explained
Bath and shower screen fitting in St Paul's EC4 is a fixed-price visit for renter-heavy homes in City of London, most of them post-war. 4,914 households sit inside this EC4 patch, 98% of them flats, so we quote on access near St Paul's Cathedral rather than a London average.
How it works
How bath and shower screen fitting works in St Paul's
Five steps, the same on every EC4 job, so you know what happens before you commit. New-build and conversion flats lined with dot-and-dab plasterboard on these streets — and with 51% one-person households in St Paul's, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site 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 St Paul's customers book us
Four things decide whether a EC4 job goes well, and none of them are visible from a price list.
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. Pedestrianised zones and camera-enforced streets; loading needs a permit from the Corporation.
Booked around your day
Most bookings are within a week, sooner for a re-seal call where damp has already started to show. St Paul's (Central) is the nearest station, so a EC4 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
St Paul's walls, not generic walls
We expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork; locally that also means with metal stud partitions between rooms, the pattern behind 4,914 households inside the EC4 neighbourhood in EC4, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is St Paul's gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, and with 48% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does.
Fixed prices
Bath and shower screen fitting prices in St Paul's
Fixed prices for EC4 and the rest of City of London. 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 St Paul's
The same scope across EC4, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- Standard on City of London bookings: drilling set for porcelain and ceramic tile with a pilot to stop the bit skating off the glaze, arranged with City of London Corporation where the kerb needs it
- Screen or door packed and shimmed level even where the bath or tray is not — including bath and shower screen fitting
- In St Paul's: neutral-cure silicone sealant used against tile and enamel, which will not corrode chrome fittings, the way it is done on St Paul's jobs
- On EC4 jobs: old sealant fully removed and the substrate dried before resealing, with 98% of homes here being flats, planned around the stair or the lift
Not included
- Replacing cracked or chipped bath enamel, tile or tray, which is quoted as a separate repair, handled by City of London Corporation or a specialist contractor instead
- Tanking or waterproof membrane repair behind tiles found to be leaking, which we refer on to the right trade in St Paul's
- Cutting or reglazing toughened glass on site — a damaged panel is replaced, not cut down, outside the fixed price on St Paul's bookings

Sulltan is the best handyman in London. He is very reliable and professional. I highly recommend.
★★★★★Trustpilot
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 →

St Paul's substrates run to dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork; locally that also means with metal stud partitions between rooms, the pattern behind 4,914 households inside the EC4 neighbourhood. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because St Paul's gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, and with 48% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does is the mistake that costs a EC4 customer twice.
Cathedral precinct, One New Change shopping and the streets running down to the Millennium Bridge. That character decides the practical detail of bath and shower screen fitting here far more than the borough boundary does. St Paul's sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
On access, pedestrianised zones and camera-enforced streets; loading needs a permit from the Corporation — 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.

Common questions
Bath and shower screen fitting in St Paul's EC4 — your questions.
How much does bath and shower screen fitting cost in St Paul's EC4?
Pivot screen on a bath starts at £110 in St Paul's on this side of City of London, with 98% of homes here being flats, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. Screen type and how far out of level the bath, tray or floor sits in this 98% flats neighbourhood. 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 on City of London bookings, with this being a short walk from St Paul's (Central).
Can you fit a shower screen on an old cast-iron bath in St Paul's EC4?
Yes — a pivot screen is £110. Cast-iron and reglazed baths in St Paul's's older stock are rarely level along the rim on EC4 jobs, with 48% of EC4 homes being privately rented — and 51% one-person households here, so the hinge post is packed and shimmed until the screen itself reads plumb. The problem we fix most here is St Paul's gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs on the St Paul's rounds, with St Paul's Cathedral a few streets away — and this being a short walk from St Paul's (Central), and with 48% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does.
Do you drill into tiles in EC4 without cracking them?
Yes, with a slow pilot hole and a bit rated for porcelain rather than standard masonry on EC4 jobs, with this being a short walk from St Paul's (Central). Cracked glaze is the most common DIY mistake we're called to fix in St Paul's bathrooms on the streets near St Paul's Cathedral, with 37% owner-occupation locally.
I have mould around my old shower screen in St Paul's — can you just reseal it?
Yes, from £65. With 98% of St Paul's homes being flats, poor bathroom ventilation is common; we strip the old silicone fully, dry the substrate and reseal with neutral-cure sealant so it doesn't come back within a season around St Paul's (Central) — and 48% of EC4 homes being privately rented, with St Paul's Cathedral a few streets away.
What is not included in bath and shower screen fitting in St Paul's?
Replacing cracked or chipped bath enamel, tile or tray for St Paul's (EC4) addresses, with 4,914 households on this patch, which is quoted as a separate repair; Tanking or waterproof membrane repair behind tiles found to be leaking; Cutting or reglazing toughened glass on site — a damaged panel is replaced, not cut down. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately so the St Paul's EC4 price you agree is the price you pay on the streets near St Paul's Cathedral, with 51% one-person households here.
Who books bath and shower screen fitting in St Paul's EC4 — tenants, landlords or owners?
All three. With 48% of St Paul's privately rented and 37% owner-occupied, roughly half the EC4 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door on the St Paul's rounds — and St Paul's Cathedral a few streets away, with a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood.
How quickly can you reach St Paul's from your City of London round?
St Paul's Cathedral is the marker we route to in this 98% flats neighbourhood, with 51% one-person households here, and pedestrianised zones and camera-enforced streets; loading needs a permit from the Corporation. A EC4 slot added to an existing City of London round usually lands the same week rather than the next on City of London bookings, with City of London parking rules in play.
