Overview
Bath and shower screen fitting in Wimbledon SW19, explained
This page prices bath and shower screen fitting for Wimbledon SW19 specifically: mainly Victorian stock, 34% privately rented and 23,023 households in total. Work starts at £110, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Merton permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
How bath and shower screen fitting works in Wimbledon
Five steps, the same on every SW19 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Victorian and Edwardian conversion flats with original lath-and-plaster partitions on these streets — the pattern behind 23,023 households inside the SW19 neighbourhood 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 Wimbledon customers book us
Local knowledge is not a slogan on this page — it is what stops a bracket coming out of a Wimbledon wall.
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. Championship-fortnight restrictions, steep Wimbledon Hill Road and Village conservation limits.
Booked around your day
Most bookings are within a week, sooner for a re-seal call where damp has already started to show. Wimbledon (District, Southern, South Western, Tramlink) is the nearest station, so a SW19 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Wimbledon walls, not generic walls
We expect lath and plaster over timber studs in Wimbledon, with solid brick on the party and external walls, and with 34% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does in SW19, 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, measured on the walk in from Wimbledon (District, Southern, South Western, Tramlink) rather than assumed from a map.
Fixed prices
Bath and shower screen fitting prices in Wimbledon
Fixed prices for SW19 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.
| 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 Wimbledon
The same scope across SW19, 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, with 23,023 households in this neighbourhood, it is the question we are asked most
- Screen or door packed and shimmed level even where the bath or tray is not, checked on every SW19 visit
- In Wimbledon: neutral-cure silicone sealant used against tile and enamel, which will not corrode chrome fittings, sized for the championship-fortnight restrictions, steep wimbledon hill road and village conservation limits
- On SW19 jobs: old sealant fully removed and the substrate dried before resealing, bath and shower screen fitting prices included
Not included
- Replacing cracked or chipped bath enamel, tile or tray, which is quoted as a separate repair, handled by London Borough of Merton or a specialist contractor instead
- Tanking or waterproof membrane repair behind tiles found to be leaking, which we refer on to the right trade in Wimbledon
- Cutting or reglazing toughened glass on site — a damaged panel is replaced, not cut down, outside the fixed price on Wimbledon bookings

Sulltan is the best handyman in London. He is very reliable and professional. I highly recommend.
★★★★★Trustpilot
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 Wimbledon — the numbers that actually change a bath and shower screen fitting quote.
23,023 households sit inside the SW19 neighbourhood covering Wimbledon. The build is mainly Victorian, the tenure profile owner-occupier-led, and 47% of those homes are flats.
With 34% private renting against 57% owner-occupied, most SW19 bookings land on a move-in day rather than a weekend.
Wimbledon substrates run to lath and plaster over timber studs in Wimbledon, with solid brick on the party and external walls, and with 34% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster; locally that also means which crumbles the key and drops the panel, measured on the walk in from Wimbledon (District, Southern, South Western, Tramlink) rather than assumed from a map is the mistake that costs a SW19 customer twice.
The town centre and theatre below, the Village and common above. That character decides the practical detail of bath and shower screen fitting here far more than the borough boundary does. Wimbledon is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Championship-fortnight restrictions, steep Wimbledon Hill Road and Village conservation limits. Nearest station is Wimbledon (District, Southern, South Western, Tramlink), 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.

Common questions
Bath and shower screen fitting in Wimbledon SW19 — your questions.
How much does bath and shower screen fitting cost in Wimbledon SW19?
Pivot screen on a bath starts at £110 in Wimbledon on Merton bookings, with 8% 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 on the Wimbledon rounds. 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 for Wimbledon (SW19) addresses, with The All England Lawn Tennis Club a few streets away.
Can you fit a shower screen on an old cast-iron bath in Wimbledon SW19?
Yes — a pivot screen is £110. Cast-iron and reglazed baths in Wimbledon's older stock are rarely level along the rim on the streets near The All England Lawn Tennis Club, with this being London Borough of Merton territory — and 53% of Wimbledon homes being houses, 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, measured on the walk in from Wimbledon (District, Southern, South Western, Tramlink) rather than assumed from a map for Wimbledon (SW19) addresses — and a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood, with 47% of homes here being flats.
Do you drill into tiles in SW19 without cracking them?
Yes, with a slow pilot hole and a bit rated for porcelain rather than standard masonry across SW19, with 8% social-rented stock nearby. Cracked glaze is the most common DIY mistake we're called to fix in Wimbledon bathrooms on the Wimbledon rounds.
I have mould around my old shower screen in Wimbledon — can you just reseal it?
Yes, from £65. With 47% of Wimbledon 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 Merton — and 47% of homes here being flats, with 34% of SW19 homes being privately rented.
Do you handle difficult access in Wimbledon?
Championship-fortnight restrictions, steep Wimbledon Hill Road and Village conservation limits across SW19. Where a permit or a suspended bay is needed in London Borough of Merton it is itemised on the quote before the visit, never added afterwards on this side of Merton, with this being London Borough of Merton territory.
Are your fitters insured for work in SW19?
Fitters carry £5m public liability cover, with 8% social-rented stock nearby, 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 The All England Lawn Tennis Club — and 57% owner-occupation locally. That paperwork is what most Merton letting agents and managing agents ask for before work starts in a leasehold flat for Wimbledon (SW19) addresses, with 57% owner-occupation locally.
What is not included in bath and shower screen fitting in Wimbledon?
Replacing cracked or chipped bath enamel, tile or tray on Merton bookings — and 8% social-rented stock nearby, with The All England Lawn Tennis Club a few streets away, 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. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately so the Wimbledon SW19 price you agree is the price you pay on the Wimbledon rounds, with 34% of SW19 homes being privately rented.
