Overview

Bath and shower screen fitting in Honor Oak SE23, explained

Booked mostly by mixed-tenure households around Honor Oak Park, bath and shower screen fitting here covers supply-free fitting from £110. With 54% of Honor Oak's 3,683 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in SE23 shape the slot length we hold.

How it works

How bath and shower screen fitting works in Honor Oak

Five steps, the same on every SE23 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Victorian and Edwardian conversion flats with original lath-and-plaster partitions on these streets — which is why London Borough of Lewisham kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded is what we plan for here.
  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. 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 Honor Oak customers book us

Local knowledge is not a slogan on this page — it is what stops a bracket coming out of a Honor Oak wall.

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. Very steep streets, narrow railway bridges and permit bays near the station.

Booked around your day

Most bookings are within a week, sooner for a re-seal call where damp has already started to show. Honor Oak Park (Overground) is the nearest station, so a SE23 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.

Honor Oak walls, not generic walls

We expect lath and plaster over timber studs in Honor Oak, with solid brick on the party and external walls, with 20% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first in SE23, 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 in Honor Oak, 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 Honor Oak

Fixed prices for SE23 and the rest of Lewisham. 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.
Bath and shower screen fitting price guide for Honor Oak SE23
JobFromTypical timeWhat sets the price
Pivot screen on a bath£1101–1.5 hrsThe 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£1501.5–2 hrsTwo 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£1902–3 hrsThe 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£2202.5–3.5 hrsTwo hinged leaves fold flush without fouling the tray lip, which takes more adjustment than a single sliding panel.
Wet-room glass panel, floor-fixed£2403–4 hrsNo 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£6545–75 minOld silicone is cut out, the substrate dried and re-sealed — the single most common reason a bathroom starts to smell of damp.

Prices are fitting labour with sealant and standard fixings included; the screen or door itself is supplied by you or ordered at cost. Every screen fitted is CE-marked toughened safety glass to BS EN 12150. Tanking or waterproofing repairs behind existing tiles are quoted separately once uncovered. Permits, ULEZ and the Congestion Charge where they apply are itemised.

Scope

What's included in Honor Oak

The same scope across SE23, whether the job is a single item or a full room.

Included in the price

  • Standard on Lewisham bookings: drilling set for porcelain and ceramic tile with a pilot to stop the bit skating off the glaze, allowing for the 27% of SE23 homes that are privately rented and need the landlord's sign-off
  • Screen or door packed and shimmed level even where the bath or tray is not, noted on the Honor Oak job sheet so the next visit starts from it
  • In Honor Oak: neutral-cure silicone sealant used against tile and enamel, which will not corrode chrome fittings, timed against the walk in from Honor Oak Park (Overground)
  • On SE23 jobs: old sealant fully removed and the substrate dried before resealing, agreed on the doorstep in Honor Oak before anything is unpacked

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 SE23 visit rather than on the day
  • Tanking or waterproof membrane repair behind tiles found to be leaking, handled by London Borough of Lewisham or a specialist contractor instead
  • Cutting or reglazing toughened glass on site — a damaged panel is replaced, not cut down, quoted separately if you need it arranged in SE23

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 Honor Oak

Honor Oak SE23 at a glance

Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Honor Oak — the numbers that actually change a bath and shower screen fitting quote.

Honor Oak SE23 is mainly Victorian and mixed-tenure: 54% of homes here are flats and 46% are houses, across 3,683 households (ONS Census 2021).

With 27% private renting against 53% owner-occupied, most SE23 bookings land on a move-in day rather than a weekend.

Walls are lath and plaster over timber studs in Honor Oak, with solid brick on the party and external walls, with 20% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first, so the fixing that matters in Honor Oak is chosen on site — the usual failure here is a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster in Honor Oak, which crumbles the key and drops the panel, a median age of 36 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here.

One Tree Hill, a small parade of shops and Victorian terraces on the slope. That character decides the practical detail of bath and shower screen fitting here far more than the borough boundary does. Honor Oak is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.

Getting to the door matters as much as the job: very steep streets, narrow railway bridges and permit bays near the station. Honor Oak Park (Overground) 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.
