Shower door installation cost
The total cost of professional shower door installation can range from $250 to $700, not including the price of the shower doors. The basic labor runs $100-$300, and supplies usually cost less than $10.
In some jobs, the installer may need to acquire special equipment, such as a specific size of miter saw, which generally costs $50-$100, and some of this cost may be passed on to the customer.
Your installation costs may be higher if you have a small bathroom or an unusual layout that’s difficult for the installer to navigate, especially when wielding floor-to-ceiling-size pieces of glass. The design of your tub or shower may mean increased costs as well. For example, it’s more complicated to install shower doors on top of a bathtub than to put simple sliding doors on a shower stall. Similarly, a frameless shower enclosure with two walls requires more labor than a single door on a pivot. The more unusual the room design or shower components, the greater your installation cost will be.
If the site is clean and doesn’t require additional repairs or modifications, the labor involved in installing shower doors includes securing the door frame to the shower walls, adjusting and leveling the doors, caulking the edges of the door frame, and preparing and cleaning up the area in the bathroom.
