What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your SN8 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Common problems we fix in Alton Barnes

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A crack across the base
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Scuffs and light scratches

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How the colour is matched
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

FAQs for Alton Barnes

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SN8 postcode.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Generally, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

For anyone letting property in or around Alton Barnes, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
