How it works
How bath and shower screen fitting works in Stoke Newington
Five steps, the same on every N16 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 31% one-person households in Stoke Newington, 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 Stoke Newington customers book us
Four things decide whether a N16 job goes well, and none of them are visible from a price list.
Stoke Newington walls, not generic walls
We expect with metal stud partitions between rooms — and dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork, measured on the walk in from Stoke Newington (Overground) rather than assumed from a map in N16, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Stoke Newington gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, where 34% 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. Church Street loading windows, LTN filters and steep front steps on Georgian houses.
Fixed prices
Bath and shower screen fitting prices in Stoke Newington
Fixed prices for N16 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. |

Scope
What's included in Stoke Newington
The same scope across N16, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- Standard on Hackney bookings: drilling set for porcelain and ceramic tile with a pilot to stop the bit skating off the glaze, arranged with London Borough of Hackney 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 Stoke Newington: neutral-cure silicone sealant used against tile and enamel, which will not corrode chrome fittings, the way it is done on Stoke Newington jobs
- On N16 jobs: old sealant fully removed and the substrate dried before resealing, with 73% 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 London Borough of Hackney 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 Stoke Newington
- Cutting or reglazing toughened glass on site — a damaged panel is replaced, not cut down, quoted separately if you need it arranged in N16

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 →

Stoke Newington N16 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Stoke Newington — the numbers that actually change a bath and shower screen fitting quote.
Stoke Newington N16 is Georgian and early Victorian and renter-heavy: 73% of homes here are flats and 27% are houses, across 11,669 households (ONS Census 2021).
With 37% private renting against 34% owner-occupied, most N16 bookings land on a move-in day rather than a weekend.
Stoke Newington substrates run to with metal stud partitions between rooms — and dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork, measured on the walk in from Stoke Newington (Overground) rather than assumed from a map. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because Stoke Newington gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, where 34% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year is the mistake that costs a N16 customer twice.
Stoke Newington 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 — church Street's independents, Clissold Park and Georgian terraces — which is why a N16 quote is not a Hackney average.
Church Street loading windows, LTN filters and steep front steps on Georgian houses. Nearest station is Stoke Newington (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.

Screen type and how far out of level the bath, tray or floor sits on N16 jobs. 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 Stoke Newington (Overground), with 11,669 households on this patch.
Can you fit a shower screen on an old cast-iron bath in Stoke Newington N16?
Yes — a pivot screen is £110. Cast-iron and reglazed baths in Stoke Newington's older stock are rarely level along the rim, with Clissold Park and Abney Park Cemetery a few streets away — and 11,669 households on this patch, so the hinge post is packed and shimmed until the screen itself reads plumb.

Do you drill into tiles in N16 without cracking them?
Yes, with a slow pilot hole and a bit rated for porcelain rather than standard masonry across N16, with 27% of Stoke Newington homes being houses. Cracked glaze is the most common DIY mistake we're called to fix in Stoke Newington bathrooms on this side of Hackney, with Clissold Park and Abney Park Cemetery a few streets away.
I have mould around my old shower screen in Stoke Newington — can you just reseal it?
Yes, from £65. With 73% of Stoke Newington 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 for Stoke Newington (N16) addresses, with 34% owner-occupation locally — and 29% social-rented stock nearby.

Who books bath and shower screen fitting in Stoke Newington N16 — tenants, landlords or owners?
All three.

How quickly can you reach Stoke Newington from your Hackney round?
Clissold Park and Abney Park Cemetery is the marker we route to on the Stoke Newington rounds, with 11,669 households on this patch, and church Street loading windows, LTN filters and steep front steps on Georgian houses. A N16 slot added to an existing Hackney round usually lands the same week rather than the next on N16 jobs, with 31% one-person households here.
