How we handle shower tray repair in Afton
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. We are often asked to fix a tray that flexes and edge chips from dropped bottles, in cast iron, ceramic and stone resin.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A photo taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Store bottles off the tray
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Why repair rather than replace?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
What you get with us
- One visit for most repairs
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Work done at your home or business
- No extra charge for your area

Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Damage around the waste
- Chips caused during fitting
- Chipped corners or rims
- A tray that flexes
Questions to ask before you book
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers

- When it can be used again
- Whether the price covers travel

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For anyone letting property in or around Afton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- 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
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
