Or try it on the web →This shower screen quote template is for glaziers pricing standard installs in residential bathrooms. It covers frameless, semi-frameless, and framed screens up to 2.1 metres high. The biggest mistakes are underquoting labour for out-of-square walls and forgetting the cost of high-quality silicone. A cheap sealant fails in two years and costs you a callback, wrecking your profit. Get the labour and consumables right, and the glass price is easy to manage. This template helps you remember every line item for a profitable job, so you can send a professional shower screen quote every time.
How to Price Labour and Hardware Correctly
A standard frameless screen takes two people about 2-3 hours, so budget $200-$300 for labour. Add an extra hour if the walls are badly out of plumb and need custom channels or packers. Hardware is the next variable. A set of basic chrome hinges and a handle from Reece might run you $150, but a matte black or brushed brass finish can easily double that. Always check current supplier pricing. Don't forget consumables. A good quality sanitary-grade silicone from Bunnings for around $25 a tube is essential. It's the difference between a clean, long-lasting finish and a mouldy callback. Factor in at least half a tube per screen.
What Glaziers Forget to Add to the Quote
Forgetting disposal of the old screen is a classic mistake. A trip to the tip can cost $50-$80 in fees and eats up your time. Always add a line item for removal and disposal. Also, check site access. Are you carrying a 2-metre glass panel up three flights of stairs? That’s extra time and risk, so add a site access or difficult access fee. Finally, all safety glass installations must comply with AS 1288. This dictates minimum thickness and fixing requirements. You don't quote the standard itself, but complying might mean using thicker, more expensive glass, especially for larger panels. Check the glass span tables in AS 1288 before finalising your price.

Frequently Asked Questions
Matte black, brushed nickel, or brass hardware can be 50-100% more expensive than standard polished chrome. Check the latest catalogue from your supplier like Tradelink or Reece before quoting. A chrome hinge set might be $80, while the same thing in matte black could be $160 or more. Always confirm the exact price before sending the quote.
The key standard is AS 1288: Glass in buildings – Selection and installation. It specifies the type and thickness of safety glass required for bathrooms to prevent serious injury. For frameless screens, this usually means using toughened Grade A safety glass, typically 10mm thick, to meet the standard's requirements for human impact safety.
Only if you are licensed to do so. If you remove an old framed screen and see damage to the waterproof membrane, you must stop. Inform the client they need a licensed waterproofer to repair it to AS 3740 standards before you can proceed. You can quote for the screen install, conditional on the substrate being sound and ready.
