What does a bath to shower conversion cost in Brent?
In Brent, a bath to shower conversion typically costs £2,500–£6,200 including VAT, based on London prices. Prices in London run at about 25% 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 Brent
We work right across Brent — HA0, HA9, NW2 and 2 more postcode districts — and in neighbouring Harrow and Bushey.
In Brent, many bathrooms are in flats or converted houses, so we check lease consents, access and the floor below before we price. If someone in your Brent home is finding the bath side harder to step over, a low or level-access tray removes the problem. For Brent houses with only one bath, we talk through whether to keep it before you decide.
Water across much of Greater London is very hard. If your supply in Brent 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
- Grab rails and a fold-down seat if you want them
- Boarding, tanking and re-tiling of the shower walls
- Repair or replacement of floorboards where the bath has left them soft or damaged
- A low-profile tray, or a former and tanking for a level-access floor
Decisions to make first
Low tray or level floor
A low-profile tray has a small lip. A level-access floor removes the step altogether but needs a former, tanking and a linear drain.
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.
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.
