About our shower tray repair in Ashridge
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that’s the case. We work on ceramic, acrylic and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about cracks running from the waste and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Why repair rather than replace?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Ashridge
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A cracked shower tray
Questions to ask before booking
- How long it needs to cure
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Questions from Ashridge
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Ashridge included. Travel is included in the price.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A picture taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
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.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Store bottles off the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
