How it works
How bath and shower screen fitting works in Kidbrooke
Five steps, the same on every SE3 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Terraced houses with solid London stock brick and later plasterboard linings on these streets — with 25% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first 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 Kidbrooke customers book us
Local knowledge is not a slogan on this page — it is what stops a bracket coming out of a Kidbrooke wall.
Kidbrooke walls, not generic walls
We expect solid London stock brick in Kidbrooke, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, which is why Royal Borough of Greenwich kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded in SE3, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Kidbrooke gives us fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, where 53% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year.
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. Managed estate with loading bays and lift booking; wide new roads elsewhere.
Fixed prices
Bath and shower screen fitting prices in Kidbrooke
Fixed prices for SE3 and the rest of Greenwich. 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 Kidbrooke
The same scope across SE3, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- Standard on Greenwich bookings: drilling set for porcelain and ceramic tile with a pilot to stop the bit skating off the glaze, arranged with Royal Borough of Greenwich where the kerb needs it
- Screen or door packed and shimmed level even where the bath or tray is not — including local bath and shower screen fitting
- In Kidbrooke: neutral-cure silicone sealant used against tile and enamel, which will not corrode chrome fittings, the way it is done on Kidbrooke jobs
- On SE3 jobs: old sealant fully removed and the substrate dried before resealing, with 44% 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 Royal Borough of Greenwich 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 Kidbrooke
- Cutting or reglazing toughened glass on site — a damaged panel is replaced, not cut down, outside the fixed price on Kidbrooke 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 →

Kidbrooke SE3 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Kidbrooke — the numbers that actually change a bath and shower screen fitting quote.
Kidbrooke SE3 is post-war and mixed-tenure: 44% of homes here are flats and 56% are houses, across 7,629 households (ONS Census 2021).
The mixed-tenure mix here (53% owned, 22% privately rented) means a SE3 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Expect solid London stock brick in Kidbrooke, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, which is why Royal Borough of Greenwich kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded behind the plaster in SE3. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why Kidbrooke gives us fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, 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.
Kidbrooke is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it. What shapes the job more is the neighbourhood itself — kidbrooke Village — the rebuilt Ferrier estate — beside Sutcliffe Park — which is why a SE3 quote is not a Greenwich average.
On access, managed estate with loading bays and lift booking; wide new roads elsewhere — 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 Kidbrooke (Southeastern).

Common questions
Bath and shower screen fitting in Kidbrooke SE3 — your questions.
How much does bath and shower screen fitting cost in Kidbrooke SE3?
Pivot screen on a bath starts at £110 in Kidbrooke in this 44% flats neighbourhood, with 22% of SE3 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 Greenwich bookings. 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 the Kidbrooke rounds, with a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood.
Can you fit a shower screen on an old cast-iron bath in Kidbrooke SE3?
Yes — a pivot screen is £110. Cast-iron and reglazed baths in Kidbrooke's older stock are rarely level along the rim on SE3 jobs, with Greenwich parking rules in play — and 56% of Kidbrooke homes being houses, so the hinge post is packed and shimmed until the screen itself reads plumb. The problem we fix most here is Kidbrooke gives us fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body on the Kidbrooke rounds, with 29% one-person households here — and a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood, where 53% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year.
Do you drill into tiles in SE3 without cracking them?
Yes, with a slow pilot hole and a bit rated for porcelain rather than standard masonry on SE3 jobs, with Sutcliffe Park a few streets away. Cracked glaze is the most common DIY mistake we're called to fix in Kidbrooke bathrooms around Kidbrooke (Southeastern).
I have mould around my old shower screen in Kidbrooke — can you just reseal it?
Yes, from £65. With 44% of Kidbrooke 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 Kidbrooke rounds — and this being Royal Borough of Greenwich territory, with a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood.
Do you handle difficult access in Kidbrooke?
Managed estate with loading bays and lift booking; wide new roads elsewhere on the Kidbrooke rounds. Where a permit or a suspended bay is needed in Royal Borough of Greenwich it is itemised on the quote before the visit, never added afterwards for Kidbrooke (SE3) addresses — and this being a short walk from Kidbrooke (Southeastern), with 22% of SE3 homes being privately rented.
Are your fitters insured for work in SE3?
Fitters carry £5m public liability cover, with 7,629 households on this patch — and this being Royal Borough of Greenwich territory, 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 on the streets near Sutcliffe Park. That paperwork is what most Greenwich letting agents and managing agents ask for before work starts in a leasehold flat for Kidbrooke (SE3) addresses, with a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood.
What is not included in bath and shower screen fitting in Kidbrooke?
Replacing cracked or chipped bath enamel, tile or tray for Kidbrooke (SE3) addresses — and 53% owner-occupation locally, with 25% social-rented stock nearby, 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 Kidbrooke SE3 price you agree is the price you pay on the streets near Sutcliffe Park, with 29% one-person households here.
