Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Limehouse fitters · Fixed written pricesLooking for bath and shower screen fitting in Limehouse E14? We work in Limehouse most weeks — basin marina, Narrow Street's riverside houses and canal moorings — and price bath and shower screen fitting against that reality rather than a London average. Fixed written quote from £110, insured fitters, CE-marked toughened glass and every seal tooled clean.


Overview
Booked mostly by social-housing-led households around Limehouse, bath and shower screen fitting here covers supply-free fitting from £110. With 83% of Limehouse's 7,637 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in E14 shape the slot length we hold.
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
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. Narrow Street is single-track with no turning; marina blocks need gate codes and lift booking.
Most bookings are within a week, sooner for a re-seal call where damp has already started to show. Limehouse (DLR, c2c) is the nearest station, so a E14 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in E14, often with surface conduit, and with 30% one-person households in Limehouse, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site in E14, 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 Limehouse stock goes, a median age of 30 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here.
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 Limehouse
Limehouse E14 is Georgian and early Victorian and social-housing-led: 83% of homes here are flats and 17% are houses, across 7,637 households (ONS Census 2021).
With 32% private renting against 25% owner-occupied, most E14 bookings land on a move-in day rather than a weekend.
Walls are precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in E14, often with surface conduit, and with 30% one-person households in Limehouse, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site, so the fixing that matters in Limehouse is chosen on site — the usual failure here is drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, as the Limehouse stock goes, a median age of 30 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here.
Basin marina, Narrow Street's riverside houses and canal moorings. That character decides the practical detail of bath and shower screen fitting here far more than the borough boundary does. Limehouse sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
Narrow Street is single-track with no turning; marina blocks need gate codes and lift booking. Nearest station is Limehouse (DLR, c2c), 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.

Pivot screen on a bath starts at £110 in Limehouse across E14, with a median age of 30 in this neighbourhood, 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 this side of Tower Hamlets. 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 on E14 jobs, with 83% of homes here being flats.
Yes — a pivot screen is £110. Cast-iron and reglazed baths in Limehouse's older stock are rarely level along the rim in this 83% flats neighbourhood, with Limehouse Basin a few streets away — and 7,637 households on this patch, so the hinge post is packed and shimmed until the screen itself reads plumb. The problem we fix most here is drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, as the Limehouse stock goes, a median age of 30 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here for Limehouse (E14) addresses, with 25% owner-occupation locally — and Limehouse Basin a few streets away.
Yes, with a slow pilot hole and a bit rated for porcelain rather than standard masonry in Limehouse, with 25% owner-occupation locally. Cracked glaze is the most common DIY mistake we're called to fix in Limehouse bathrooms for Limehouse (E14) addresses.
Yes, from £65. With 83% of Limehouse 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 E14 jobs — and 7,637 households on this patch, with Tower Hamlets parking rules in play.
Replacing cracked or chipped bath enamel, tile or tray around Limehouse (DLR, c2c) — and 83% of homes here being flats, with 17% of Limehouse homes being houses, 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 Limehouse E14 price you agree is the price you pay in Limehouse, with Limehouse Basin a few streets away.
All three. With 32% of Limehouse privately rented and 25% owner-occupied, roughly half the E14 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door on E14 jobs, with 17% of Limehouse homes being houses.
Limehouse Basin is the marker we route to in Limehouse, with a median age of 30 in this neighbourhood, and narrow Street is single-track with no turning; marina blocks need gate codes and lift booking. A E14 slot added to an existing Tower Hamlets round usually lands the same week rather than the next for Limehouse (E14) addresses, with 7,637 households on this patch.
