Overview

Bath and shower screen fitting in Morden SM4, explained

Bath and shower screen fitting in Morden SM4 is a fixed-price visit for owner-occupier-led homes in Merton, most of them inter-war. 6,284 households sit inside this SM4 patch, 25% of them flats, so we quote on access near Morden Hall Park rather than a London average.

How it works

How bath and shower screen fitting works in Morden

Five steps, the same on every SM4 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Inter-war and post-war semis with timber stud partitions and cavity outer walls on these streets — and wide roads with driveways; the station gyratory is busy with short loading bays 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 Morden customers book us

What follows is specific to Morden: its walls, its access and the paperwork Merton agents ask for.

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. Wide roads with driveways; the station gyratory is busy with short loading bays.

Booked around your day

Most bookings are within a week, sooner for a re-seal call where damp has already started to show. Morden (Northern) is the nearest station, so a SM4 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.

Morden walls, not generic walls

We expect cavity brickwork outside — and timber stud partitions inside, the pattern behind 6,284 households inside the SM4 neighbourhood in SM4, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Morden gives us a four-hole bracket with two screws in a stud and two in fresh air, which is what a 25% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Morden actually produces.

Fixed prices

Bath and shower screen fitting prices in Morden

Fixed prices for SM4 and the rest of Merton. 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 Morden SM4
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 Morden

The same scope across SM4, whether the job is a single item or a full room.

Included in the price

  • Standard on Merton bookings: drilling set for porcelain and ceramic tile with a pilot to stop the bit skating off the glaze, arranged with London Borough of Merton where the kerb needs it
  • Screen or door packed and shimmed level even where the bath or tray is not — including bath and shower screen fitting london
  • In Morden: neutral-cure silicone sealant used against tile and enamel, which will not corrode chrome fittings, the way it is done on Morden jobs
  • On SM4 jobs: old sealant fully removed and the substrate dried before resealing, with 25% 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, outside the fixed price on Morden bookings
  • Tanking or waterproof membrane repair behind tiles found to be leaking, and we will say so before the SM4 visit rather than on the day
  • Cutting or reglazing toughened glass on site — a damaged panel is replaced, not cut down, which we refer on to the right trade in Morden

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 Morden

Morden SM4 at a glance

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

Morden SM4 is inter-war and owner-occupier-led: 25% of homes here are flats and 75% are houses, across 6,284 households (ONS Census 2021).

Because 25% of Morden is privately rented and 12% socially rented, a lot of SM4 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.

Morden substrates run to cavity brickwork outside — and timber stud partitions inside, the pattern behind 6,284 households inside the SM4 neighbourhood. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because Morden gives us a four-hole bracket with two screws in a stud and two in fresh air, which is what a 25% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Morden actually produces is the mistake that costs a SM4 customer twice.

The southern end of the Northern line, with Morden Hall Park's water meadows. That character decides the practical detail of bath and shower screen fitting here far more than the borough boundary does. Morden is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.

Wide roads with driveways; the station gyratory is busy with short loading bays. Nearest station is Morden (Northern), 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.

  • Can you fit a shower screen on an old cast-iron bath in Morden SM4?

The problem we fix most here is Morden gives us a four-hole bracket with two screws in a stud and two in fresh air on the Morden rounds — and Merton parking rules in play, with this being London Borough of Merton territory, which is what a 25% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Morden actually produces.

    Yes, from £65. With 25% of Morden 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 in Morden — and this being a short walk from Morden (Northern), with 75% of Morden homes being houses.

  • Are your fitters insured for work in SM4?

    Fitters carry £5m public liability cover, with 22% one-person households here, 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 the streets near Morden Hall Park — and 6,284 households on this patch. That paperwork is what most Merton letting agents and managing agents ask for before work starts in a leasehold flat on SM4 jobs, with 6,284 households on this patch.

  • What is not included in bath and shower screen fitting in Morden?

    Replacing cracked or chipped bath enamel, tile or tray for Morden (SM4) addresses, with this being London Borough of Merton territory — and a median age of 38 in this neighbourhood, 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.
