Overview
Bath and shower screen fitting in Goodmayes IG3, explained
Bath and shower screen fitting in Goodmayes IG3 is a fixed-price visit for renter-heavy homes in Redbridge, most of them mainly Edwardian. 7,053 households sit inside this IG3 patch, 34% of them flats, so we quote on access near Goodmayes Park rather than a London average.
How it works
How bath and shower screen fitting works in Goodmayes
Five steps, the same on every IG3 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Terraced houses with solid London stock brick and later plasterboard linings on these streets — and elizabeth-line demand, permit bays and narrow terraced frontages 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 Goodmayes customers book us
Local knowledge is not a slogan on this page — it is what stops a bracket coming out of a Goodmayes wall.
Goodmayes walls, not generic walls
We expect solid London stock brick in Goodmayes, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, measured on the walk in from Goodmayes (Elizabeth line) rather than assumed from a map in IG3, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Goodmayes gives us fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, the reality on the streets around Goodmayes Park.
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. Elizabeth-line demand, permit bays and narrow terraced frontages.
Fixed prices
Bath and shower screen fitting prices in Goodmayes
Fixed prices for IG3 and the rest of Redbridge. 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 Goodmayes
The same scope across IG3, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- Standard on Redbridge bookings: drilling set for porcelain and ceramic tile with a pilot to stop the bit skating off the glaze, arranged with London Borough of Redbridge 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
- In Goodmayes: neutral-cure silicone sealant used against tile and enamel, which will not corrode chrome fittings, the way it is done on Goodmayes jobs
- On IG3 jobs: old sealant fully removed and the substrate dried before resealing, with 34% 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, quoted separately if you need it arranged in IG3
- Tanking or waterproof membrane repair behind tiles found to be leaking, outside the fixed price on Goodmayes bookings
- Cutting or reglazing toughened glass on site — a damaged panel is replaced, not cut down, handled by London Borough of Redbridge or a specialist contractor instead

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 Goodmayes — the numbers that actually change a bath and shower screen fitting quote.
7,053 households sit inside the IG3 neighbourhood covering Goodmayes. The build is mainly Edwardian, the tenure profile renter-heavy, and 34% of those homes are flats.
With 41% private renting against 50% owner-occupied, most IG3 bookings land on a move-in day rather than a weekend.
Goodmayes substrates run to solid London stock brick in Goodmayes, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, measured on the walk in from Goodmayes (Elizabeth line) rather than assumed from a map. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because Goodmayes gives us fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, the reality on the streets around Goodmayes Park is the mistake that costs a IG3 customer twice.
Goodmayes is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it. What shapes the job more is the neighbourhood itself — retail park, hospital and a long stretch of Edwardian terraced streets — which is why a IG3 quote is not a Redbridge average.
On access, elizabeth-line demand, permit bays and narrow terraced frontages — 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. Fitters travelling in use Goodmayes (Elizabeth line).

Yes — a pivot screen is £110.
