Overview
Bath and shower screen fitting in Haggerston E2, explained
Booked mostly by social-housing-led households around Haggerston, bath and shower screen fitting here covers supply-free fitting from £110. With 89% of Haggerston's 10,083 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in E2 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
How bath and shower screen fitting works in Haggerston
Five steps, the same on every E2 job, so you know what happens before you commit. In E2, Council and housing-association blocks built from precast concrete and dense block — and with 33% one-person households in Haggerston, 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 Haggerston customers book us
Local knowledge is not a slogan on this page — it is what stops a bracket coming out of a Haggerston wall.
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. Canal bridges limit access, permit bays throughout and estate lifts needing booking.
Booked around your day
Most bookings are within a week, sooner for a re-seal call where damp has already started to show. Haggerston (Overground) is the nearest station, so a E2 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Haggerston walls, not generic walls
We expect precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in Haggerston, often with surface conduit, with 51% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first in E2, 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, as the Haggerston stock goes, where 22% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year.
Fixed prices
Bath and shower screen fitting prices in Haggerston
Fixed prices for E2 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.
| 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. |

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 Haggerston
Haggerston E2 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Haggerston — the numbers that actually change a bath and shower screen fitting quote.
In Haggerston (E2) the split is 89% flats to 11% houses over 10,083 households, and the stock is mainly Victorian.
Because 27% of Haggerston is privately rented and 51% socially rented, a lot of E2 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Haggerston substrates run to precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in Haggerston, often with surface conduit, with 51% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, as the Haggerston stock goes, where 22% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year is the mistake that costs a E2 customer twice.
Regent's Canal terraces, estate blocks and a fast-changing strip of Kingsland Road. That character decides the practical detail of bath and shower screen fitting here far more than the borough boundary does. Haggerston is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Canal bridges limit access, permit bays throughout and estate lifts needing booking. Nearest station is Haggerston (Overground), 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.

Common questions
Bath and shower screen fitting in Haggerston E2 — your questions.
How much does bath and shower screen fitting cost in Haggerston E2?
Pivot screen on a bath starts at £110 in Haggerston on this side of Hackney, with this being London Borough of Hackney territory, 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 89% 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 around Haggerston (Overground), with Hackney parking rules in play.
Can you fit a shower screen on an old cast-iron bath in Haggerston E2?
Yes — a pivot screen is £110. Cast-iron and reglazed baths in Haggerston's older stock are rarely level along the rim across E2, with 51% social-rented stock nearby — and this being a short walk from Haggerston (Overground), 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, as the Haggerston stock goes around Haggerston (Overground), with 27% of E2 homes being privately rented — and 33% one-person households here, where 22% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year.
Do you drill into tiles in E2 without cracking them?
Yes, with a slow pilot hole and a bit rated for porcelain rather than standard masonry on the Haggerston rounds, with this being a short walk from Haggerston (Overground). Cracked glaze is the most common DIY mistake we're called to fix in Haggerston bathrooms on E2 jobs.
I have mould around my old shower screen in Haggerston — can you just reseal it?
Yes, from £65. With 89% of Haggerston 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 E2 jobs, with 22% owner-occupation locally — and 51% social-rented stock nearby.
Do you handle difficult access in Haggerston?
Canal bridges limit access, permit bays throughout and estate lifts needing booking on E2 jobs. Where a permit or a suspended bay is needed in London Borough of Hackney it is itemised on the quote before the visit, never added afterwards around Haggerston (Overground) — and 89% of homes here being flats, with 51% social-rented stock nearby.
Are your fitters insured for work in E2?
Fitters carry £5m public liability cover, with 33% one-person households here, 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 Haggerston rounds — and Regent's Canal at Haggerston Park a few streets away. That paperwork is what most Hackney letting agents and managing agents ask for before work starts in a leasehold flat on Hackney bookings, with 10,083 households on this patch.
What is not included in bath and shower screen fitting in Haggerston?
Replacing cracked or chipped bath enamel, tile or tray across E2, with 51% 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 Haggerston E2 price you agree is the price you pay on this side of Hackney, with 11% of Haggerston homes being houses.
