How much does bath and shower screen fitting cost in Hackney Wick E9?

Pivot screen on a bath starts at £110 in Hackney Wick on this side of Hackney, with 2,805 households on this patch — and a median age of 33 in this neighbourhood, 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 across E9. 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 Hackney Wick (Overground), with Hackney parking rules in play.

Can you fit a shower screen on an old cast-iron bath in Hackney Wick E9?

Yes — a pivot screen is £110. Cast-iron and reglazed baths in Hackney Wick's older stock are rarely level along the rim on Hackney bookings — and 31% one-person households here, with Hackney 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 drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it on these streets — with 45% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first in Hackney Wick, with a median age of 33 in this neighbourhood.

Do you drill into tiles in E9 without cracking them?

Yes, with a slow pilot hole and a bit rated for porcelain rather than standard masonry for Hackney Wick (E9) addresses, with 69% of homes here being flats. Cracked glaze is the most common DIY mistake we're called to fix in Hackney Wick bathrooms on the Hackney Wick rounds, with Hackney parking rules in play.

I have mould around my old shower screen in Hackney Wick — can you just reseal it?

Yes, from £65. With 69% of Hackney Wick 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 Hackney Wick rounds — and 28% owner-occupation locally, with 2,805 households on this patch.

Who books bath and shower screen fitting in Hackney Wick E9 — tenants, landlords or owners?

All three. With 28% of Hackney Wick privately rented and 28% owner-occupied, roughly half the E9 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door in Hackney Wick — and The Lee Navigation and Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park a few streets away, with Hackney parking rules in play.

Is same-day or evening bath and shower screen fitting available in Hackney?

Most bookings are within a week, sooner for a re-seal call where damp has already started to show around Hackney Wick (Overground), with 31% of Hackney Wick homes being houses. Hackney Wick sits close to Hackney Wick (Overground) on E9 jobs, with 45% social-rented stock nearby, so we can usually add a E9 job to an existing Hackney round at short notice.

Overview

Bath and shower screen fitting in Hackney Wick E9, explained

This page prices bath and shower screen fitting for Hackney Wick E9 specifically: post-war stock, 28% privately rented and 2,805 households in total. Work starts at £110, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Hackney permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.

How it works

How bath and shower screen fitting works in Hackney Wick

Five steps, the same on every E9 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Council and housing-association blocks built from precast concrete and dense block, as the Hackney Wick stock goes, the reality on the streets around The Lee Navigation and Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park 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 Hackney Wick customers book us

Four things decide whether a E9 job goes well, and none of them are visible from a price list.

Hackney Wick walls, not generic walls

We expect precast concrete panels and dense blockwork; locally that also means often with surface conduit — a median age of 33 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here in E9, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it on these streets — with 45% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first.

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. Narrow canal bridges, studio blocks with freight lifts and event-day park closures.

Booked around your day

Most bookings are within a week, sooner for a re-seal call where damp has already started to show. Hackney Wick (Overground) is the nearest station, so a E9 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.

Fixed prices

Bath and shower screen fitting prices in Hackney Wick

Fixed prices for E9 and the rest of Hackney. 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.

Bath and shower screen fitting price guide for Hackney Wick E9
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.

Scope

What's included in Hackney Wick

The same scope across E9, whether the job is a single item or a full room.

Included in the price

On E9 jobs: drilling set for porcelain and ceramic tile with a pilot to stop the bit skating off the glaze, bath and shower screen fitting prices included
In Hackney Wick: screen or door packed and shimmed level even where the bath or tray is not, sized for the narrow canal bridges, studio blocks with freight lifts and event-day park closures
Neutral-cure silicone sealant used against tile and enamel, which will not corrode chrome fittings, checked on every E9 visit
Standard on Hackney bookings: old sealant fully removed and the substrate dried before resealing, with 2,805 households in this neighbourhood, it is the question we are asked most

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 E9 visit rather than on the day
Tanking or waterproof membrane repair behind tiles found to be leaking, outside the fixed price on Hackney Wick bookings
Cutting or reglazing toughened glass on site — a damaged panel is replaced, not cut down, quoted separately if you need it arranged in E9

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 →

Hackney Wick E9 at a glance

Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Hackney Wick — the numbers that actually change a bath and shower screen fitting quote.

The E9 stock around The Lee Navigation and Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park is post-war. ONS records 69% flats, 31% houses and 2,805 households in Hackney Wick.

Owner-occupation runs at 28% in Hackney Wick, so alongside the 28% rental churn there is steady planned work — refurbishments, downsizes and probate clearances booked weeks ahead.

Walls are precast concrete panels and dense blockwork; locally that also means often with surface conduit — a median age of 33 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here, so the fixing that matters in Hackney Wick is chosen on site — the usual failure here is drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it on these streets — with 45% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first.

Two streets can behave very differently in Hackney Wick: canal-side studios and warehouse blocks facing the Olympic Park. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Hackney Wick is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.

Getting to the door matters as much as the job: narrow canal bridges, studio blocks with freight lifts and event-day park closures. Hackney Wick (Overground) is the nearest station, 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.
