How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- How much damage there is
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Abington
Do you redo the sealant?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Are there extra charges for Abington?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
What we can’t put right
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Trays cracked in several places
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Abington
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin

Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Common problems we fix in Abington
Cracks frequently start at the waste, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Chips on the edges
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Movement when you stand on it
- Chips caused during fitting

- Whether they match the colour on site

Repairing versus replacing in Abington
A new shower tray usually means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
