About our shower tray repair in Arlecdon
We repair a lot of shower trays. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces are all things we fix in place. If you are dealing with movement when you stand on it and cracks running from the waste, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Arlecdon. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. The room is left tidy.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice
Should you replace it?
The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Questions from Arlecdon
Is a cracked tray repairable?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Are there extra charges for Arlecdon?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Arlecdon is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Arlecdon
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
When we’d advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Stone resin
- Ceramic

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Use the extractor fan
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
