What does a bath to shower conversion cost in Norwich?
Our guide price for a bath to shower conversion in Norwich is £2,100–£5,300 including VAT. Prices in East of England run at about 6% 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 Norwich
We work right across Norwich — NR1, NR2, NR3 and 4 more postcode districts — and in neighbouring East Dereham and Great Yarmouth.
In a city the size of Norwich, parking and access for a skip are worth sorting before the start date — we will ask at the survey. For Norwich houses with only one bath, we talk through whether to keep it before you decide. If the bath in your Norwich home is mainly used for storing things, a walk-in shower in the same space is a quick, contained job.
Supplies across most of Norfolk are very hard. If your supply in Norwich 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
- 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
- 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.
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.
