What does a new shower cost in Morley?
In Morley, a new shower typically costs £400–£3,300 including VAT, based on Yorkshire and the Humber prices. We adjust the national guide for Yorkshire and the Humber, where prices are typically about 7% below the UK average. The figure depends on the size of the room, whether anything moves, and the products you pick.

Working in Morley
As well as Morley itself (LS11, LS27 and WF17), we survey in Batley, Dewsbury and Heckmondwike.
In Morley, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. We test pressure and flow at Morley surveys before recommending a shower, so you know how it will perform before you buy. If you want a shower in your Morley home that works when the boiler is off, an electric shower is worth considering, as long as the consumer unit can take the circuit.
Supplies across most of West Yorkshire are soft. If that holds for your street in Morley, 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 check of your hot-water system, water pressure and flow rate
- New pipework and isolation valves, plus a pump only where the system is gravity-fed from a cold tank
- For an electric shower, a check of the consumer unit and whether a new dedicated circuit is needed
- Supply and fitting of the shower valve or unit, riser rail, handset or fixed head
Decisions to make first
Exposed or concealed
An exposed bar valve fixes onto the tiles and is easy to service. A concealed valve sits in the wall for a cleaner look but needs careful setting-out and a plan for access.
Head and handset
A handset on a riser rail is versatile and easy for rinsing; a fixed overhead head feels generous but needs strong flow behind it.
Rules that apply in England
In England, an electric shower usually needs its own dedicated circuit, often 40 to 45 amps for an 8.5 to 10.5 kW unit, and a new circuit is notifiable under Part P. The Part G limit of 48 °C applies to a new bath in a new dwelling or one created by change of use, not to a shower, but a thermostatic valve gives similar protection. An unvented cylinder fitted to improve the shower must be installed by a G3-qualified installer.
