What does a bath to shower conversion cost in Sutton?
Guide price in Sutton: £2,500–£6,200 including VAT, depending on the room and what you choose. 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 Sutton
We cover every part of Sutton, including KT4, SM1, SM2 and 3 more postcode districts, and nearby Banstead (1.9 miles) and Ewell (2.1 miles).
London homes in Sutton 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 Sutton, we provide the itemised written quote the council will ask for. We check the floor under the bath during a Sutton survey where we can, because old leaks can leave soft boards.
Supplies across most of Greater London are very hard. If your supply in Sutton 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
- A low-profile tray, or a former and tanking for a level-access floor
- A thermostatic shower valve, with the pipework moved for the new head position
- 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
Decisions to make first
Enclosure or walk-in
An enclosure with a door keeps all the water in and suits a shorter space. A walk-in panel makes the most of the full 1700 mm length an old bath leaves.
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.
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.
