Shower Screen Installation Melbourne — Servicing West Melbourne From $150

A cracked shower screen, leaking frameless panel, or outdated sliding door can turn your daily routine into a frustrating mess. Whether you're renovating a tired bathroom in Footscray, replacing a broken screen in a Werribee rental, or upgrading to a sleek frameless design in Point Cook, professional shower screen installation ensures a watertight seal, clean finish, and long-lasting result. Poor installation leads to water damage, mould growth, and expensive rework — which is why getting it right the first time matters.

We deliver fast, fixed-price shower screen installation Melbourne services across Melbourne's west, from initial measure-through to final silicone seal. Our team handles frameless, semi-frameless, and framed screens in all standard and custom sizes, working with existing plumbing and tiling to ensure a perfect fit. No guesswork, no hidden extras. Fill out the form on this page, and we'll call you back with a clear quote and available dates — usually within the hour.

What's Included

Every shower screen installation job we complete covers:

Pre-installation site inspection and measure-up — checking wall stud locations, verifying tile level and plumb, confirming drain placement
Supply or fitting of new screen — frameless glass panels (6mm, 8mm, 10mm), semi-frameless pivot or sliding doors, or budget-friendly framed aluminium units
Drilling, anchoring, and hardware installation — masonry and tile drilling with diamond-tipped bits, wall channel or hinge mounting, all stainless-steel fixings included
Waterproofing and silicone seal — neutral-cure silicone applied to all penetrations, joints, and base channels, colour-matched where needed
Clean-up and glass polish — removal of adhesive residue, protective film peeling, glass buffing, and full site tidy before handover
Level, plumb, and operational check — doors swing or slide smoothly, water beads and drains correctly, no gaps or misalignment
Compliance with Australian Standards — all glass meets AS/NZS 2208 (safety glazing), installations follow waterproofing code AS 3740

We work with most major screen brands and can source custom sizes, obscure glass, or specialty finishes on request.

Pricing

Shower screen installation pricing in Melbourne starts from $150 for a basic supply-only fit (you provide the screen, we install it). Full supply-and-install packages — where we source, deliver, and fit the screen — typically range from $450 to $1,200 depending on glass type, frame style, and site complexity. Frameless 10mm glass panels with wall-to-wall channels cost more than a standard 1800mm framed pivot door, and jobs requiring custom cutting, angled panels, or hob modifications will sit at the higher end.

Pricing factors include:

Screen type and size — frameless glass panels require precision measurement and heavy-duty wall fixings; framed aluminium units are faster to install and more forgiving on older, uneven tiles
Wall condition — solid brick or hebel walls drill cleanly; steel-framed internal walls need stud location and backing plates; loose or hollow tiles may require re-fixing before installation
Access and site prep — ground-floor bathrooms are straightforward; upper-floor or narrow-doorway access for large panels adds time; if existing screens need removal and disposal, we quote that separately
Waterproofing and trim work — re-sealing around hobs, patching tile drill points, or custom silicone colour-matching for feature tiles increases scope

We provide fixed-price quotes after a brief phone discussion or site photo review — no obligation, no pressure. The $150 entry price covers labour-only installation of a supplied standard-size screen in accessible conditions; your actual quote will reflect your specific bathroom layout and screen choice.

Where We Work

We service the entire Melbourne western suburbs corridor, from the inner west near the Maribyrnong River through to the growth suburbs along the Princes Freeway. Our team knows the mix of weatherboard cottages, 1980s brick veneers, and new townhouse developments across the region, and we're familiar with council requirements in Maribyrnong, Hobsons Bay, Wyndham, and Brimbank.

We complete shower screen installation services Melbourne jobs daily in:

If your suburb sits within or near this zone — including Seddon, Kingsville, Laverton, Manor Lakes, Truganina, or Williams Landing — we service it. Request a quote through the form, and we'll confirm timing for your postcode.

Why Locals Choose Us

Fast callback and firm quotes — most quote requests submitted before 3pm receive a return call the same day. We ask about screen type, bathroom size, wall material, and any photos you can share, then provide a fixed price valid for 30 days. No vague "from $X" ranges that balloon on the day.

Fixed pricing with no hidden extras — the quote we give is the amount you pay, including GST, hardware, silicone, and clean-up. If we discover an issue during the job (crumbling grout, unsealed wall penetration), we discuss it before proceeding, and only charge for additional work you approve in writing.

Real local presence — we're based in Melbourne's west, not a CBD call centre dispatching subcontractors. Most jobs are completed within 5–7 days of quote acceptance, and we schedule precise two-hour windows (not "sometime Tuesday"). Our van carries common screen sizes, spare channels, and full tool kits, so we're not disappearing mid-job for supplies.

Fully insured and compliant — public liability and WorkCover coverage on every site, and all glazing meets AS/NZS 2208 toughened-glass standards. If you're a landlord, property manager, or strata committee, we provide tax invoices, compliance certificates, and site photos for your records.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a typical shower screen installation take?

Most standard frameless or semi-frameless installations take 1.5 to 3 hours from arrival to final clean-up. Framed pivot or sliding doors can be quicker (60–90 minutes) if the wall is level and pre-drilled. Complex jobs — corner units, angled panels, or screens requiring hob modifications — may take 4–5 hours. We confirm timing when we quote, and always schedule enough buffer to finish properly rather than rush the silicone cure.

Can you install a shower screen over existing tiles without damaging them?

Yes, provided the tiles are sound and properly adhered. We use diamond-tipped masonry bits and low-speed drilling to minimise vibration and chipping. Each penetration is sealed immediately with silicone to prevent water ingress behind the tile. If tiles are loose, cracked, or poorly waterproofed, we'll flag that during the measure-up — forcing fixings into unstable substrate causes long-term leaks and tile failure.

Do I need to remove the old shower screen myself?

No — we handle removal and disposal as an optional add-on (usually $80–$120 depending on screen size and frame type). This includes unscrewing hardware, cutting old silicone, careful glass extraction, and loading the waste for drop-off at a recycling facility. If you've already removed the old screen, make sure any leftover silicone and mounting brackets are cleared, or let us know so we can factor in prep time.

What's the difference between frameless and semi-frameless screens?

Frameless screens use 10mm toughened glass with minimal hardware — just wall channels and hinges, no bulky aluminium frames. They look sleek and modern, suit contemporary bathrooms, and cost more due to the thicker glass and precision installation. Semi-frameless screens combine a slim frame (usually around the door panel only) with 6mm or 8mm glass, offering a balance of style and budget. Fully framed screens — common in older homes — wrap the entire panel in aluminium, making them the most affordable and forgiving for uneven walls.

Are your shower screen installations covered by warranty?

Yes. We provide a 12-month workmanship warranty covering leaks, hardware failures, and installation defects. Glass breakage from impact, improper cleaning (abrasive chemicals, metal scrapers), or building movement falls outside the warranty. Most screen manufacturers also offer separate product warranties (5–10 years on hardware, lifetime on glass) — we pass these through and help with claims if needed.
