Overview
Bath and shower screen fitting in Nunhead SE15, explained
Bath and shower screen fitting in Nunhead SE15 is a fixed-price visit for social-housing-led homes in Southwark, most of them mainly Victorian. 7,127 households sit inside this SE15 patch, 58% of them flats, so we quote on access near Nunhead Cemetery rather than a London average.
How it works
How bath and shower screen fitting works in Nunhead
Five steps, the same on every SE15 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Council and housing-association blocks built from precast concrete and dense block on these streets — which is why London Borough of Southwark kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded 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 Nunhead customers book us
Four things decide whether a SE15 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 hill 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. Nunhead (Southeastern) is the nearest station, so a SE15 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Nunhead walls, not generic walls
We expect often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, with 39% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first in SE15, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Nunhead gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, the reality on the streets around Nunhead Cemetery.
Fixed prices
Bath and shower screen fitting prices in Nunhead
Fixed prices for SE15 and the rest of Southwark. 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 Nunhead
The same scope across SE15, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- Standard on Southwark bookings: drilling set for porcelain and ceramic tile with a pilot to stop the bit skating off the glaze, arranged with London Borough of Southwark where the kerb needs it
- Screen or door packed and shimmed level even where the bath or tray is not — including local bath and shower screen fitting
- In Nunhead: neutral-cure silicone sealant used against tile and enamel, which will not corrode chrome fittings, the way it is done on Nunhead jobs
- On SE15 jobs: old sealant fully removed and the substrate dried before resealing, with 58% 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, and we will say so before the SE15 visit rather than on the day
- Tanking or waterproof membrane repair behind tiles found to be leaking, handled by London Borough of Southwark 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 SE15

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 →

Nunhead SE15 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Nunhead — the numbers that actually change a bath and shower screen fitting quote.
7,127 households sit inside the SE15 neighbourhood covering Nunhead. The build is mainly Victorian, the tenure profile social-housing-led, and 58% of those homes are flats.
With 20% private renting against 41% owner-occupied, most SE15 bookings land on a move-in day rather than a weekend.
Walls are often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, with 39% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first, so the fixing that matters in Nunhead is chosen on site — the usual failure here is Nunhead gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, the reality on the streets around Nunhead Cemetery.
Cemetery, hill views and a quiet village green between Peckham and Brockley. That character decides the practical detail of bath and shower screen fitting here far more than the borough boundary does. Nunhead 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 hill streets, narrow railway bridges and permit bays near the station — 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 Nunhead (Southeastern).

Common questions
Bath and shower screen fitting in Nunhead SE15 — your questions.
How much does bath and shower screen fitting cost in Nunhead SE15?
Pivot screen on a bath starts at £110 in Nunhead on SE15 jobs, with 30% one-person households here, 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 streets near Nunhead Cemetery. 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 across SE15, with 58% of homes here being flats.
Can you fit a shower screen on an old cast-iron bath in Nunhead SE15?
Yes — a pivot screen is £110. Cast-iron and reglazed baths in Nunhead's older stock are rarely level along the rim on the streets near Nunhead Cemetery, with this being London Borough of Southwark territory — and 39% social-rented stock nearby, so the hinge post is packed and shimmed until the screen itself reads plumb. The problem we fix most here is Nunhead gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, the reality on the streets around Nunhead Cemetery for Nunhead (SE15) addresses — and this being London Borough of Southwark territory, with 58% of homes here being flats.
Do you drill into tiles in SE15 without cracking them?
Yes, with a slow pilot hole and a bit rated for porcelain rather than standard masonry on the streets near Nunhead Cemetery, with a median age of 35 in this neighbourhood. Cracked glaze is the most common DIY mistake we're called to fix in Nunhead bathrooms across SE15.
I have mould around my old shower screen in Nunhead — can you just reseal it?
Yes, from £65. With 58% of Nunhead 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 Southwark — and a median age of 35 in this neighbourhood, with this being a short walk from Nunhead (Southeastern).
Do you handle difficult access in Nunhead?
Steep hill streets, narrow railway bridges and permit bays near the station on Southwark bookings. Where a permit or a suspended bay is needed in London Borough of Southwark it is itemised on the quote before the visit, never added afterwards on the Nunhead rounds — and this being London Borough of Southwark territory, with 58% of homes here being flats.
Are your fitters insured for work in SE15?
Fitters carry £5m public liability cover, with 41% owner-occupation locally, 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 across SE15 — and Southwark parking rules in play. That paperwork is what most Southwark letting agents and managing agents ask for before work starts in a leasehold flat on the streets near Nunhead Cemetery, with this being a short walk from Nunhead (Southeastern).
What is not included in bath and shower screen fitting in Nunhead?
Replacing cracked or chipped bath enamel, tile or tray around Nunhead (Southeastern), with a median age of 35 in this neighbourhood — and 41% owner-occupation locally, 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 Nunhead SE15 price you agree is the price you pay across SE15, with 7,127 households on this patch.
