How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
We don’t add 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.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Shower tray repair at your home in Ashfield
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. We are often asked to fix a dull, stained or worn surface and chipped corners or rims, on stone resin, enamelled steel and cast iron.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Ashfield: your questions answered
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you work in Ashfield?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Ashfield. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
Do you cover the entire of Shropshire?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Use the extractor fan
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Do you need shower tray repair in Ashfield?
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Look out for these signs:
- A tray that flexes
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A damaged area around the waste
- Scuffs and light scratches
Questions to ask before you book
- When it can be used again
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, usually by the following day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
Should you replace it?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
