What does a bath to shower conversion cost in Heston?
As a guide, budget £2,500 to £6,200 including VAT for a bath to shower conversion in Heston; your written quote will pin it down. 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.

Walk-in shower
- Full-height tiling
Level-access floor
- Floor former and tanking

Working in Heston
We cover every part of Heston, including TW4, TW5 and UB2, and nearby Hounslow (1.2 miles) and Isleworth (1.5 miles).
London homes in Heston often mean stairs, permits and neighbours below; we plan the logistics as carefully as the bathroom. If you are applying for a grant towards a bath to shower conversion in Heston, we provide the itemised written quote the council will ask for. If your Heston 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.
Supplies across most of Greater London are very hard. If your supply in Heston 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
- Silicone, a full-flow test and a tidy finish where the new tiling meets the old
- Repair or replacement of floorboards where the bath has left them soft or damaged
- A survey of the bath space, the waste position, the floor and your water system
- Boarding, tanking and re-tiling of the shower walls
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.
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.
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.
