Shower tray repair in Ashill, 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’s the case. We’re often asked to fix a crack across the base and chips on the edges, in enamelled steel, stone resin and ceramic.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
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.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray generally means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Store bottles off the tray
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
How it works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
