Overview
Bath and shower screen fitting in Temple and Aldwych WC2, explained
Bath and shower screen fitting in Temple and Aldwych WC2 is a fixed-price visit for renter-heavy homes in Westminster, most of them period conversion. 3,927 households sit inside this WC2 patch, 95% of them flats, so we quote on access near The Royal Courts of Justice rather than a London average.
How it works
How bath and shower screen fitting works in Temple and Aldwych
Five steps, the same on every WC2 job, so you know what happens before you commit. New-build and conversion flats lined with dot-and-dab plasterboard on these streets — and with 46% one-person households in Temple and Aldwych, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site 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 Temple and Aldwych customers book us
Local knowledge is not a slogan on this page — it is what stops a bracket coming out of a Temple and Aldwych wall.
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. Embankment red route, Inns gate control and no loading on the Strand at peak times.
Booked around your day
Most bookings are within a week, sooner for a re-seal call where damp has already started to show. Temple (Circle, District) is the nearest station, so a WC2 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Temple and Aldwych walls, not generic walls
We expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in Temple and Aldwych, with metal stud partitions between rooms, which is why Westminster City Council kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded in WC2, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Temple and Aldwych gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, a median age of 35 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here.
Fixed prices
Bath and shower screen fitting prices in Temple and Aldwych
Fixed prices for WC2 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.
| 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 Temple and Aldwych
The same scope across WC2, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- Standard on Westminster bookings: drilling set for porcelain and ceramic tile with a pilot to stop the bit skating off the glaze, with 3,927 households in this neighbourhood, it is the question we are asked most
- Screen or door packed and shimmed level even where the bath or tray is not, checked on every WC2 visit
- In Temple and Aldwych: neutral-cure silicone sealant used against tile and enamel, which will not corrode chrome fittings, sized for the embankment red route, inns gate control and no loading on the strand at peak times
- On WC2 jobs: old sealant fully removed and the substrate dried before resealing, bath and shower screen fitting prices included
Not included

- Tanking or waterproof membrane repair behind tiles found to be leaking, quoted separately if you need it arranged in WC2
- Cutting or reglazing toughened glass on site — a damaged panel is replaced, not cut down, and we will say so before the WC2 visit rather than on the day

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 →

Temple and Aldwych WC2 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Temple and Aldwych — the numbers that actually change a bath and shower screen fitting quote.
Temple and Aldwych WC2 is period conversion and renter-heavy: 95% of homes here are flats and 5% are houses, across 3,927 households (ONS Census 2021).
Because 44% of Temple and Aldwych is privately rented and 29% socially rented, a lot of WC2 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Walls are dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in Temple and Aldwych, with metal stud partitions between rooms, which is why Westminster City Council kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded, so the fixing that matters in Temple and Aldwych is chosen on site — the usual failure here is Temple and Aldwych gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, a median age of 35 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here.
Barristers' chambers, King's College buildings and the crescent of Aldwych. That character decides the practical detail of bath and shower screen fitting here far more than the borough boundary does. Temple and Aldwych 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, embankment red route, Inns gate control and no loading on the Strand at peak times — 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.

Common questions
Bath and shower screen fitting in Temple and Aldwych WC2 — your questions.
How much does bath and shower screen fitting cost in Temple and Aldwych WC2?
Pivot screen on a bath starts at £110 in Temple and Aldwych on WC2 jobs, with a median age of 35 in this neighbourhood — and 44% of WC2 homes being privately rented, 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 around Temple (Circle, District). 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 WC2, with 29% social-rented stock nearby.
Can you fit a shower screen on an old cast-iron bath in Temple and Aldwych WC2?
Yes — a pivot screen is £110. Cast-iron and reglazed baths in Temple and Aldwych's older stock are rarely level along the rim on this side of Westminster — and 5% of Temple and Aldwych homes being houses, with 46% one-person households here, so the hinge post is packed and shimmed until the screen itself reads plumb. The problem we fix most here is Temple and Aldwych gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, a median age of 35 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here in Temple and Aldwych — and this being a short walk from Temple (Circle, District), with 3,927 households on this patch.
Do you drill into tiles in WC2 without cracking them?
Yes, with a slow pilot hole and a bit rated for porcelain rather than standard masonry around Temple (Circle, District), with 5% of Temple and Aldwych homes being houses. Cracked glaze is the most common DIY mistake we're called to fix in Temple and Aldwych bathrooms across WC2, with The Royal Courts of Justice a few streets away.
I have mould around my old shower screen in Temple and Aldwych — can you just reseal it?
Yes, from £65. With 95% of Temple and Aldwych 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 Westminster bookings — and 3,927 households on this patch, with 5% of Temple and Aldwych homes being houses.
How quickly can you reach Temple and Aldwych from your Westminster round?
The Royal Courts of Justice is the marker we route to on WC2 jobs — and a median age of 35 in this neighbourhood, with this being Westminster City Council territory, and embankment red route, Inns gate control and no loading on the Strand at peak times. A WC2 slot added to an existing Westminster round usually lands the same week rather than the next on the streets near The Royal Courts of Justice, with a median age of 35 in this neighbourhood.
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 around Temple (Circle, District), with this being Westminster City Council territory. Temple and Aldwych sits close to Temple (Circle, District) on WC2 jobs, with 95% of homes here being flats, so we can usually add a WC2 job to an existing Westminster round at short notice.
Do you handle difficult access in Temple and Aldwych?
Embankment red route, Inns gate control and no loading on the Strand at peak times for Temple and Aldwych (WC2) addresses. 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 on the streets near The Royal Courts of Justice, with 95% of homes here being flats.
