Southwark · SE15 · Bath and shower screen fitting
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Peckham fitters · Fixed written pricesWe provide bath and shower screen fitting in Peckham SE15 for houses and flats around Peckham Rye Park and the Bussey Building. From £110, quoted in writing before the visit, with 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 Tile is pilot-drilled to stop the glaze cracking before any fixing goes in.


Overview
Bath and shower screen fitting in Peckham SE15 is a fixed-price visit for social-housing-led homes in Southwark, most of them Georgian and early Victorian. 24,172 households sit inside this SE15 patch, 72% of them flats, so we quote on access near Peckham Rye Park and the Bussey Building rather than a London average.
How it works
Step 1
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
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
Hinges, tracks or channels fixed and packed so the screen itself reads level even when the bath edge does not.
Step 4
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
Door or panel run through its full movement, checked for drips at the seal, and off-cuts and packaging removed.
Why choose us
Most bookings are within a week, sooner for a re-seal call where damp has already started to show. Peckham Rye (Overground, Thameslink) is the nearest station, so a SE15 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in SE15, often with surface conduit, and with 32% one-person households in Peckham, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site in SE15, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, as the Peckham stock goes, and with 23% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does.
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.
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. Rye Lane bus gates, LTN filters and terraced streets with permit bays.
Fixed prices
| 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
Sulltan is the best handyman in London. He is very reliable and professional. I highly recommend.
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 Peckham
24,172 households sit inside the SE15 neighbourhood covering Peckham. The build is Georgian and early Victorian, the tenure profile social-housing-led, and 72% of those homes are flats.
Because 23% of Peckham is privately rented and 46% socially rented, a lot of SE15 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Peckham substrates run to precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in SE15, often with surface conduit, and with 32% one-person households in Peckham, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, as the Peckham stock goes, and with 23% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does is the mistake that costs a SE15 customer twice.
Peckham sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate. What shapes the job more is the neighbourhood itself — rye Lane's markets, rooftop bars and Georgian terraces around Peckham Rye — which is why a SE15 quote is not a Southwark average.
On access, rye Lane bus gates, LTN filters and terraced streets with permit bays — 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.
