What does a bath to shower conversion cost in Farnborough?
For Farnborough, our guide range for a bath to shower conversion is £2,200 to £5,600 including VAT. We adjust the national guide for South East England, where prices are typically about 12% above the UK average. The figure depends on the size of the room, whether anything moves, and the products you pick.

Working in Farnborough
We cover every part of Farnborough, including GU14, and nearby Camberley (3 miles) and Aldershot (3.2 miles).
Homes in and around Farnborough 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 Farnborough survey where we can, because old leaks can leave soft boards. If someone in your Farnborough home is finding the bath side harder to step over, a low or level-access tray removes the problem.
Most of Hampshire has hard water. If your supply in Farnborough 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
- Removal of the bath, panel and taps, and disposal of the waste
- A glass enclosure, walk-in panel or frameless screen
- 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.
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.
