Shower tray repair in Arniston, done in place
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that is the case. If you’re dealing with a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and a crack across the base, we can help.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

FAQs for Arniston
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Arniston?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Get a moving tray checked
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.
Should you replace it?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Arniston
Dull and stained trays are typically down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Scuffs and light scratches
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- 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.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
