Shower installation in RG5

If you're upgrading your bathroom or replacing an old unit, hiring a professional for shower installation in RG5 ensures the job is done safely and to a high standard.

From electric showers to walk-in enclosures, qualified installers can fit a system that suits your home, water pressure and budget.

What's included in a professional shower installation

Your installer will handle everything from plumbing and electrical connections to tiling, sealing and testing the system.

They'll ensure correct drainage and waterproofing to prevent future leaks, and can also advise on the best shower type, whether that's a thermostatic mixer, digital shower or eco-efficient electric unit.

How much does shower installation cost?

The cost of installing a shower in the UK typically ranges from £300-£800, depending on the model, location of pipework and electrical requirements.

Electric shower installations average around £375, while walk-in shower installations start from around £2,100-£2,500 for a full fit-out. Our shower installation cost guide covers the full breakdown, including walk-in shower costs.

Who should install your shower?

Electric showers must always be installed by a qualified electrician, it's a legal safety requirement, not just good practice. For standard or mixer showers, a checked plumber can handle the plumbing and connections safely.

Before you book, it's worth checking:

  • Public liability insurance, so you're covered if anything goes wrong
  • Reviews from previous customers in RG5
  • Whether they can advise on layout and fixtures, not just fit the unit

Shower installation in RG5: Homeowners vs renters
