What does a bath to shower conversion cost in Perth?
As a guide, budget £1,900 to £4,800 including VAT for a bath to shower conversion in Perth; your written quote will pin it down. Prices in Scotland run at about 4% below 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.
Tray and enclosure
- Bath removed, tray in its place
Walk-in shower
- Concealed valve, rainfall head
Level-access floor
- Grab rails and seat options

Working in Perth
As well as Perth itself (PH1 and PH2), we survey in Auchterarder, Blairgowrie and Rattray and Crieff.
Perth is a big place with every kind of home, from terraces to flats to new builds, so we never price from a photo alone. If you are applying for a grant towards a bath to shower conversion in Perth, we provide the itemised written quote the council will ask for. We check the floor under the bath during a Perth survey where we can, because old leaks can leave soft boards.
Water across much of Perth and Kinross is soft. If that holds for your street in Perth, limescale on shower glass and heads builds up slowly and a squeegee after use is usually enough. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- A thermostatic shower valve, with the pipework moved for the new head position
- Boarding, tanking and re-tiling of the shower walls
- Removal of the bath, panel and taps, and disposal of the waste
- A glass enclosure, walk-in panel or frameless screen
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.
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 Scotland
In Scotland, a bath to shower swap in the same position rarely needs a building warrant, but a level-access floor that alters drainage or structure may. For adaptation help, councils run a Scheme of Assistance rather than Disabled Facilities Grants.
