How it works

How bath and shower screen fitting works in Marylebone

Five steps, the same on every W1 job, so you know what happens before you commit. New-build and conversion flats lined with dot-and-dab plasterboard, as the Marylebone stock goes, the reality on the streets around The Wallace Collection is what we plan for here.
  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. 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 Marylebone customers book us

What follows is specific to Marylebone: its walls, its access and the paperwork Westminster agents ask for.

Marylebone walls, not generic walls

We expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in W1, with metal stud partitions between rooms — where 32% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year in W1, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs on these streets — which is why Westminster City Council kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded.

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. Estate-managed streets, single-yellow evening restrictions and mansion blocks with porters and small lifts.

Booked around your day

Most bookings are within a week, sooner for a re-seal call where damp has already started to show. Marylebone (Bakerloo, Chiltern Railways) is the nearest station, so a W1 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.

Fixed prices

Bath and shower screen fitting prices in Marylebone

Fixed prices for W1 and the rest of Westminster. 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.
Bath and shower screen fitting price guide for Marylebone W1
JobFromTypical timeWhat sets the price
Pivot screen on a bath£1101–1.5 hrsThe 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£1501.5–2 hrsTwo 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£1902–3 hrsThe 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£2202.5–3.5 hrsTwo hinged leaves fold flush without fouling the tray lip, which takes more adjustment than a single sliding panel.
Wet-room glass panel, floor-fixed£2403–4 hrsNo 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£6545–75 minOld silicone is cut out, the substrate dried and re-sealed — the single most common reason a bathroom starts to smell of damp.

Prices are fitting labour with sealant and standard fixings included; the screen or door itself is supplied by you or ordered at cost. Every screen fitted is CE-marked toughened safety glass to BS EN 12150. Tanking or waterproofing repairs behind existing tiles are quoted separately once uncovered. Permits, ULEZ and the Congestion Charge where they apply are itemised.

Scope

What's included in Marylebone

The same scope across W1, whether the job is a single item or a full room.

Included in the price

  • On W1 jobs: drilling set for porcelain and ceramic tile with a pilot to stop the bit skating off the glaze, with 88% of homes here being flats, planned around the stair or the lift
  • In Marylebone: screen or door packed and shimmed level even where the bath or tray is not, the way it is done on Marylebone jobs
  • Neutral-cure silicone sealant used against tile and enamel, which will not corrode chrome fittings — including bath and shower screen fitting prices
  • Standard on Westminster bookings: old sealant fully removed and the substrate dried before resealing, arranged with Westminster City Council where the kerb needs it

Not included

  • Replacing cracked or chipped bath enamel, tile or tray, which is quoted as a separate repair, outside the fixed price on Marylebone bookings
  • Tanking or waterproof membrane repair behind tiles found to be leaking, quoted separately if you need it arranged in W1
  • Cutting or reglazing toughened glass on site — a damaged panel is replaced, not cut down, which we refer on to the right trade in Marylebone

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 Marylebone

Marylebone W1 at a glance

Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Marylebone — the numbers that actually change a bath and shower screen fitting quote.

The W1 stock around The Wallace Collection is Georgian and early Victorian. ONS records 88% flats, 12% houses and 3,555 households in Marylebone.

57% of households rent privately and 32% own, which is why bath and shower screen fitting demand here peaks around tenancy changeovers and completion dates.

Walls are dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in W1, with metal stud partitions between rooms — where 32% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year, so the fixing that matters in Marylebone is chosen on site — the usual failure here is short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs on these streets — which is why Westminster City Council kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded.

Two streets can behave very differently in Marylebone: village high street, Georgian estate streets and the medical quarter along Harley Street. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Marylebone sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.

Estate-managed streets, single-yellow evening restrictions and mansion blocks with porters and small lifts. Nearest station is Marylebone (Bakerloo, Chiltern Railways), 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 Marylebone W1 — your questions.

  • How much does bath and shower screen fitting cost in Marylebone W1?

    Pivot screen on a bath starts at £110 in Marylebone on Westminster bookings, with 47% 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 in this 88% flats neighbourhood. 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 W1 jobs, with 88% of homes here being flats.

  • Can you fit a shower screen on an old cast-iron bath in Marylebone W1?

    Yes — a pivot screen is £110. Cast-iron and reglazed baths in Marylebone's older stock are rarely level along the rim on W1 jobs, with 88% of homes here being flats, so the hinge post is packed and shimmed until the screen itself reads plumb. The problem we fix most here is short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs on these streets — which is why Westminster City Council kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded on the streets near The Wallace Collection — and 47% one-person households here, with 11% social-rented stock nearby.

  • Do you drill into tiles in W1 without cracking them?

    Yes, with a slow pilot hole and a bit rated for porcelain rather than standard masonry in this 88% flats neighbourhood, with this being Westminster City Council territory. Cracked glaze is the most common DIY mistake we're called to fix in Marylebone bathrooms for Marylebone (W1) addresses.

  • I have mould around my old shower screen in Marylebone — can you just reseal it?

    Yes, from £65. With 88% of Marylebone 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 the streets near The Wallace Collection, with 32% owner-occupation locally — and 47% one-person households here.

  • Is same-day or evening bath and shower screen fitting available in Westminster?

    Most bookings are within a week, sooner for a re-seal call where damp has already started to show on Westminster bookings, with Westminster parking rules in play. Marylebone sits close to Marylebone (Bakerloo, Chiltern Railways) on the streets near The Wallace Collection, with 47% one-person households here, so we can usually add a W1 job to an existing Westminster round at short notice.

  • Do you handle difficult access in Marylebone?

    Estate-managed streets, single-yellow evening restrictions and mansion blocks with porters and small lifts on W1 jobs. Where a permit or a suspended bay is needed in Westminster City Council it is itemised on the quote before the visit, never added afterwards around Marylebone (Bakerloo, Chiltern Railways), with 12% of Marylebone homes being houses.

  • Are your fitters insured for work in W1?

    Fitters carry £5m public liability cover, with 32% 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 on this side of Westminster — and Westminster parking rules in play. That paperwork is what most Westminster letting agents and managing agents ask for before work starts in a leasehold flat in Marylebone, with this being a short walk from Marylebone (Bakerloo, Chiltern Railways).
