Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Greenford fitters · Fixed written pricesLooking for bath and shower screen fitting in Greenford UB6? We work in Greenford most weeks — canal-side industry, the Central line's wooden escalator and 1930s semis — and price bath and shower screen fitting against that reality rather than a London average. Fixed written quote from £110, insured fitters, CE-marked toughened glass and every seal tooled clean.


Overview
This page prices bath and shower screen fitting for Greenford UB6 specifically: inter-war stock, 30% privately rented and 12,474 households in total. Work starts at £110, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Ealing permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
Step 1
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
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
Hinges, tracks or channels fixed and packed so the screen itself reads level even when the bath edge does not.
Step 4
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
Door or panel run through its full movement, checked for drips at the seal, and off-cuts and packaging removed.
Why choose us
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.
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. Wide roads with driveways; the industrial estates carry heavy traffic at peak.
Most bookings are within a week, sooner for a re-seal call where damp has already started to show. Greenford (Central) is the nearest station, so a UB6 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect solid London stock brick; locally that also means some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, measured on the walk in from Greenford (Central) rather than assumed from a map in UB6, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, as the Greenford stock goes, where 53% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year.
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. |

Scope
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 →

Working in Greenford
Greenford UB6 is inter-war and mixed-tenure: 41% of homes here are flats and 58% are houses, across 12,474 households (ONS Census 2021).
Because 30% of Greenford is privately rented and 17% socially rented, a lot of UB6 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Expect solid London stock brick; locally that also means some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, measured on the walk in from Greenford (Central) rather than assumed from a map behind the plaster in UB6. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, as the Greenford stock goes, where 53% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year is the fault we are called back to undo.
Canal-side industry, the Central line's wooden escalator and 1930s semis. That character decides the practical detail of bath and shower screen fitting here far more than the borough boundary does. Greenford is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Wide roads with driveways; the industrial estates carry heavy traffic at peak. Nearest station is Greenford (Central), and 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.

Pivot screen on a bath starts at £110 in Greenford for Greenford (UB6) addresses, with 30% of UB6 homes being privately rented, 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 on the streets near The Grand Union Canal at Greenford. 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 around Greenford (Central), with 58% of Greenford homes being houses.
Yes — a pivot screen is £110. Cast-iron and reglazed baths in Greenford's older stock are rarely level along the rim across UB6, with 12,474 households on this patch — and Ealing parking rules in play, so the hinge post is packed and shimmed until the screen itself reads plumb. The problem we fix most here is fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, as the Greenford stock goes on Ealing bookings, with 41% of homes here being flats — and this being a short walk from Greenford (Central), where 53% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year.
Yes, with a slow pilot hole and a bit rated for porcelain rather than standard masonry on this side of Ealing, with this being London Borough of Ealing territory. Cracked glaze is the most common DIY mistake we're called to fix in Greenford bathrooms in this 41% flats neighbourhood.
Yes, from £65. With 41% of Greenford 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 on the streets near The Grand Union Canal at Greenford — and 12,474 households on this patch, with 17% social-rented stock nearby.
Replacing cracked or chipped bath enamel, tile or tray on the streets near The Grand Union Canal at Greenford, with 24% one-person households here — and 53% owner-occupation locally, 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 Greenford UB6 price you agree is the price you pay on Ealing bookings, with Ealing parking rules in play.
All three. With 30% of Greenford privately rented and 53% owner-occupied, roughly half the UB6 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door across UB6, with 53% owner-occupation locally — and 30% of UB6 homes being privately rented.
The Grand Union Canal at Greenford is the marker we route to in Greenford, with 12,474 households on this patch, and wide roads with driveways; the industrial estates carry heavy traffic at peak. A UB6 slot added to an existing Ealing round usually lands the same week rather than the next for Greenford (UB6) addresses, with 24% one-person households here.
