Overview
Bath and shower screen fitting in Norbury SW16, explained
Booked mostly by mixed-tenure households around Norbury, bath and shower screen fitting here covers supply-free fitting from £110. With 29% of Norbury's 6,130 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in SW16 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
How bath and shower screen fitting works in Norbury
Five steps, the same on every SW16 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Terraced houses with solid London stock brick and later plasterboard linings, as the Norbury stock goes, where 55% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year 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 Norbury customers book us
What follows is specific to Norbury: its walls, its access and the paperwork Lambeth agents ask for.
Booked around your day
Most bookings are within a week, sooner for a re-seal call where damp has already started to show. Norbury (Southern) is the nearest station, so a SW16 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Norbury walls, not generic walls
We expect solid London stock brick in SW16, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — which is what a 29% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Norbury actually produces in SW16, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body on these streets — and with 25% one-person households in Norbury, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site.
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.
Fixed prices
Bath and shower screen fitting prices in Norbury
Fixed prices for SW16 and the rest of Lambeth. 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 Norbury
The same scope across SW16, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- On SW16 jobs: drilling set for porcelain and ceramic tile with a pilot to stop the bit skating off the glaze, agreed on the doorstep in Norbury before anything is unpacked
- In Norbury: screen or door packed and shimmed level even where the bath or tray is not, timed against the walk in from Norbury (Southern)
- Neutral-cure silicone sealant used against tile and enamel, which will not corrode chrome fittings, noted on the Norbury job sheet so the next visit starts from it
- Standard on Lambeth bookings: old sealant fully removed and the substrate dried before resealing, allowing for the 28% of SW16 homes that are privately rented and need the landlord's sign-off
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 SW16 visit rather than on the day
- Tanking or waterproof membrane repair behind tiles found to be leaking, outside the fixed price on Norbury bookings
- Cutting or reglazing toughened glass on site — a damaged panel is replaced, not cut down, quoted separately if you need it arranged in SW16

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 →

The SW16 stock around Norbury Park is mainly Edwardian. ONS records 29% flats, 71% houses and 6,130 households in Norbury.
28% of households rent privately and 55% own, which is why bath and shower screen fitting demand here peaks around tenancy changeovers and completion dates.
Expect solid London stock brick in SW16, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — which is what a 29% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Norbury actually produces behind the plaster in SW16. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body on these streets — and with 25% one-person households in Norbury, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site is the fault we are called back to undo.
Anyone who knows Norbury knows the pattern near Norbury Park: the southern end of the London Road corridor, with Edwardian terraces and a busy parade. We plan the SW16 visit around it. Norbury sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.

Common questions
Bath and shower screen fitting in Norbury SW16 — your questions.
How much does bath and shower screen fitting cost in Norbury SW16?
Pivot screen on a bath starts at £110 in Norbury, with 18% social-rented stock nearby, 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 around Norbury (Southern). 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 in this 29% flats neighbourhood, with Norbury Park a few streets away.
Can you fit a shower screen on an old cast-iron bath in Norbury SW16?
Yes — a pivot screen is £110. Cast-iron and reglazed baths in Norbury's older stock are rarely level along the rim on the streets near Norbury Park — and this being a short walk from Norbury (Southern), with Norbury Park 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 fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body on these streets — and with 25% one-person households in Norbury, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site on Lambeth bookings, with 55% owner-occupation locally — and Lambeth parking rules in play.
Do you drill into tiles in SW16 without cracking them?
Yes, with a slow pilot hole and a bit rated for porcelain rather than standard masonry on the streets near Norbury Park, with 71% of Norbury homes being houses. Cracked glaze is the most common DIY mistake we're called to fix in Norbury bathrooms for Norbury (SW16) addresses.
I have mould around my old shower screen in Norbury — can you just reseal it?
Yes, from £65. With 29% of Norbury 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 Lambeth bookings — and Lambeth parking rules in play, with a median age of 38 in this neighbourhood.
Who books bath and shower screen fitting in Norbury SW16 — tenants, landlords or owners?
All three. With 28% of Norbury privately rented and 55% owner-occupied, roughly half the SW16 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door around Norbury (Southern) — and this being London Borough of Lambeth territory, with 18% social-rented stock nearby.
How quickly can you reach Norbury from your Lambeth round?
Norbury Park is the marker we route to in this 29% flats neighbourhood, with this being London Borough of Lambeth territory, and a23 red route, side-road permit bays and railway-bridge height limits. A SW16 slot added to an existing Lambeth round usually lands the same week rather than the next around Norbury (Southern), with a median age of 38 in this neighbourhood.
Is same-day or evening bath and shower screen fitting available in Lambeth?
Most bookings are within a week, sooner for a re-seal call where damp has already started to show for Norbury (SW16) addresses, with 29% of homes here being flats. Norbury sits close to Norbury (Southern), with Lambeth parking rules in play, so we can usually add a SW16 job to an existing Lambeth round at short notice in Norbury.
