What does a bath to shower conversion cost in Limavady?
Our guide price for a bath to shower conversion in Limavady is £1,750–£4,400 including VAT. Prices in Northern Ireland run at about 12% below 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 Limavady
We work right across Limavady — BT49 — and in neighbouring Coleraine and Derry.
Limavady gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. We check the floor under the bath during a Limavady survey where we can, because old leaks can leave soft boards. If your Limavady bathroom was refitted recently and you like the rest of it, we can convert just the bath area and finish the new tiling neatly against the old.
Most of County Londonderry is supplied with soft water. If that holds for your street in Limavady, limescale on shower glass and heads builds up slowly and a squeegee after use is usually enough. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Grab rails and a fold-down seat if you want them
- A low-profile tray, or a former and tanking for a level-access floor
- Boarding, tanking and re-tiling of the shower walls
- Removal of the bath, panel and taps, and disposal of the waste
Decisions to make first
Mixer or electric shower
A thermostatic mixer draws on your hot-water system. An electric shower heats cold mains water as it flows and needs its own circuit.
Safety extras
A fold-down seat, grab rails and a slip-resistant tray cost little at the time of fitting and are much harder to add later.
Rules that apply in Northern Ireland
In Northern Ireland, building control is only involved if drainage, structure or ventilation change. Disabled Facilities Grants of up to £25,000 are available through the Housing Executive, and wiring should follow BS 7671.
