Overview
This page prices bath and shower screen fitting for Westbourne Park W10 specifically: post-war stock, 16% privately rented and 3,175 households in total. Work starts at £110, fixed in writing, with parking and Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea 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. Canal bridges limit turning, resident bays are permit-only and towpath access is on foot.
Most bookings are within a week, sooner for a re-seal call where damp has already started to show. Westbourne Park (Circle, Hammersmith & City) is the nearest station, so a W10 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, measured on the walk in from Westbourne Park (Circle, Hammersmith & City) rather than assumed from a map in W10, 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 Westbourne Park stock goes, a median age of 36 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here.
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 Westbourne Park
In Westbourne Park (W10) the split is 94% flats to 6% houses over 3,175 households, and the stock is post-war.
Because 16% of Westbourne Park is privately rented and 71% socially rented, a lot of W10 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Walls are often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, measured on the walk in from Westbourne Park (Circle, Hammersmith & City) rather than assumed from a map, so the fixing that matters in Westbourne Park is chosen on site — the usual failure here is drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, as the Westbourne Park stock goes, a median age of 36 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here.
Canal-side streets between Notting Hill and Paddington with a strong market culture. That character decides the practical detail of bath and shower screen fitting here far more than the borough boundary does. Westbourne Park sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: canal bridges limit turning, resident bays are permit-only and towpath access is on foot. Westbourne Park (Circle, Hammersmith & City) 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.

Pivot screen on a bath starts at £110 in Westbourne Park on the Westbourne Park rounds — and 3,175 households on this patch, with The Grand Union Canal towpath a few streets away, 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 W10 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 on the streets near The Grand Union Canal towpath, with 39% one-person households here.
Yes — a pivot screen is £110. Cast-iron and reglazed baths in Westbourne Park's older stock are rarely level along the rim on the streets near The Grand Union Canal towpath, with 6% of Westbourne Park homes being houses — and The Grand Union Canal towpath a few streets away, 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 Westbourne Park stock goes, a median age of 36 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here on W10 jobs, with this being a short walk from Westbourne Park (Circle, Hammersmith & City).
Yes, with a slow pilot hole and a bit rated for porcelain rather than standard masonry on Kensington and Chelsea bookings, with 39% one-person households here.

Yes, from £65. With 94% of Westbourne Park 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 this side of Kensington and Chelsea — and 94% of homes here being flats, with 16% of W10 homes being privately rented.
The Grand Union Canal towpath is the marker we route to on W10 jobs, with Kensington and Chelsea parking rules in play, and canal bridges limit turning, resident bays are permit-only and towpath access is on foot. A W10 slot added to an existing Kensington and Chelsea round usually lands the same week rather than the next around Westbourne Park (Circle, Hammersmith & City), with 94% of homes here being flats.
Most bookings are within a week, sooner for a re-seal call where damp has already started to show across W10, with 16% of W10 homes being privately rented.
