What does a bath to shower conversion cost in Wokingham?
In Wokingham, a bath to shower conversion typically costs £2,200–£5,600 including VAT, based on South East England prices. Prices in South East England run at about 12% above the national guide, mainly because of labour rates. The figure depends on the size of the room, whether anything moves, and the products you pick.

Working in Wokingham
We cover every part of Wokingham, including RG40, RG41 and RG45, and nearby Crowthorne (3.4 miles) and Bracknell (3.7 miles).
Homes in and around Wokingham vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. We check the floor under the bath during a Wokingham survey where we can, because old leaks can leave soft boards. For Wokingham houses with only one bath, we talk through whether to keep it before you decide.
Water across much of Berkshire is hard. If your supply in Wokingham is the same, limescale on shower glass and heads is a real issue: easy-clean glass, rub-clean nozzles and a squeegee make a big difference. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Boarding, tanking and re-tiling of the shower walls
- Removal of the bath, panel and taps, and disposal of the waste
- A thermostatic shower valve, with the pipework moved for the new head position
- A glass enclosure, walk-in panel or frameless screen
Decisions to make first
How much to re-tile
Re-tile just the shower walls, or take the chance to re-tile the whole room so new and old tiles never have to match.
Your only bath?
If this is the only bath in the house, think about whether you, or a future buyer, will want one before you commit.
Rules that apply in England
In England, adding an electric shower usually means a new circuit, which is notifiable under Part P, as is any change to the wiring in the bathroom. Where the conversion is an adaptation for a disabled person, a Disabled Facilities Grant of up to £30,000 may help, but the council must approve it before work starts.
