Overview
Bath and shower screen fitting in West Norwood SE27, explained
Bath and shower screen fitting in West Norwood SE27 is a fixed-price visit for mixed-tenure homes in Lambeth, most of them mainly Victorian. 10,658 households sit inside this SE27 patch, 60% of them flats, so we quote on access near West Norwood Cemetery rather than a London average.
How it works
How bath and shower screen fitting works in West Norwood
Five steps, the same on every SE27 job, so you know what happens before you commit. In SE27, Victorian and Edwardian conversion flats with original lath-and-plaster partitions — with 29% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first 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 West Norwood customers book us
Four things decide whether a SE27 job goes well, and none of them are visible from a price list.
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. Steep hills, narrow terraced streets and market-day closures on Norwood Road.
Booked around your day
Most bookings are within a week, sooner for a re-seal call where damp has already started to show. West Norwood (Southern) is the nearest station, so a SE27 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
West Norwood walls, not generic walls
We expect with solid brick on the party and external walls — and lath and plaster over timber studs, the pattern behind 10,658 households inside the SE27 neighbourhood in SE27, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster; locally that also means which crumbles the key and drops the panel, a median age of 36 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here.
Fixed prices
Bath and shower screen fitting prices in West Norwood
Fixed prices for SE27 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 West Norwood
The same scope across SE27, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- In West Norwood: drilling set for porcelain and ceramic tile with a pilot to stop the bit skating off the glaze, timed against the walk in from West Norwood (Southern)
- On SE27 jobs: screen or door packed and shimmed level even where the bath or tray is not, agreed on the doorstep in West Norwood before anything is unpacked
- Standard on Lambeth bookings: neutral-cure silicone sealant used against tile and enamel, which will not corrode chrome fittings, allowing for the 26% of SE27 homes that are privately rented and need the landlord's sign-off
- Old sealant fully removed and the substrate dried before resealing, noted on the West Norwood job sheet so the next visit starts from it
Not included
- Replacing cracked or chipped bath enamel, tile or tray, which is quoted as a separate repair, which we refer on to the right trade in West Norwood
- Tanking or waterproof membrane repair behind tiles found to be leaking, quoted separately if you need it arranged in SE27
- Cutting or reglazing toughened glass on site — a damaged panel is replaced, not cut down, outside the fixed price on West Norwood bookings

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 →

Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers West Norwood — the numbers that actually change a bath and shower screen fitting quote.
In West Norwood (SE27) the split is 60% flats to 40% houses over 10,658 households, and the stock is mainly Victorian.
The mixed-tenure mix here (45% owned, 26% privately rented) means a SE27 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Expect with solid brick on the party and external walls — and lath and plaster over timber studs, the pattern behind 10,658 households inside the SE27 neighbourhood behind the plaster in SE27. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster; locally that also means which crumbles the key and drops the panel, a median age of 36 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here is the fault we are called back to undo.
Cemetery, Feast street market and Victorian terraces climbing towards Crystal Palace. That character decides the practical detail of bath and shower screen fitting here far more than the borough boundary does. West Norwood sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
On access, steep hills, narrow terraced streets and market-day closures on Norwood Road — one reason 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.

Can you fit a shower screen on an old cast-iron bath in West Norwood SE27?
Yes — a pivot screen is £110. Cast-iron and reglazed baths in West Norwood's older stock are rarely level along the rim — and this being a short walk from West Norwood (Southern), with this being London Borough of Lambeth territory, so the hinge post is packed and shimmed until the screen itself reads plumb. The problem we fix most here is a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster; locally that also means which crumbles the key and drops the panel, a median age of 36 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here on Lambeth bookings — and 29% social-rented stock nearby, with 30% one-person households here.
Do you drill into tiles in SE27 without cracking them?

I have mould around my old shower screen in West Norwood — can you just reseal it?
Yes, from £65. With 60% of West Norwood 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 Lambeth — and 10,658 households on this patch, with this being a short walk from West Norwood (Southern).
Do you handle difficult access in West Norwood?
Steep hills, narrow terraced streets and market-day closures on Norwood Road on this side of Lambeth.

Are your fitters insured for work in SE27?
Fitters carry £5m public liability cover, with this being London Borough of Lambeth territory — and West Norwood Cemetery a few streets away, 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 this side of Lambeth.

What is not included in bath and shower screen fitting in West Norwood?
Replacing cracked or chipped bath enamel, tile or tray on the West Norwood rounds, with this being London Borough of Lambeth territory — and 10,658 households on this patch, 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.
