replacing shower for lower step and making larger

Question

how much for converting shower to walk in and making bigger

Michael · Answer

around the £2000 mark I believe It depends on the quality you want as well

Lloyd · Answer

Hi Margaret, it’ll be in the region of £1800-2500 depending on current set up

Alex · Answer

Hi Margaret, there are variables to consider like is there currently tiling within the shower area? If so then dropping the height with a tray would mean changing the tiles etc. I’d say anywhere between £2000- £3200 for Labour and materials to change for a walk in shower based on a small to medium project.

Hey Margaret, without pictures or sizes, very hard to give a price, one of the biggest issues is where the waste pipe is and how low we could get it. But a rough guide it’ll be in the region of £1500-£2500 with minimum alterations

Adam · Answer

A typical project includes:

* Removing the existing shower enclosure and tray.
* Altering plumbing and the waste pipe if needed.
* Installing a larger shower tray or creating a wet-room style floor.
* Waterproofing (tanking) the shower area.
* Tiling the enlarged shower.
* Installing a fixed glass screen and new shower fittings.
* Making good any surrounding walls and flooring.

What affects the cost?

* Drain location: If the waste pipe can stay where it is, costs are lower.
* Shower type: A low-profile tray is generally less expensive than a fully tiled wet room.
* Tiles: Large-format porcelain or natural stone costs more than standard ceramic tiles.
* Fixtures: Premium showers and frameless glass screens increase the budget.
* Labour: Prices tend to be higher in London and the South East than elsewhere in the UK.

Budget guide

* Budget: £3,000–£4,500
* Mid-range (most common): £4,500–£6,500
* High-end: £7,500–£12,000+

If you’re only enlarging the shower and keeping the toilet and basin where they are, many homeowners spend around £4,500–£6,000 for a good-quality finish.
