Every job is a little different, 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.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Get a moving tray checked
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What we’re called out for in Badingham
The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
Common reasons people in Badingham contact us include:
- Scratches in the surface
- Movement when you stand on it
- Cracks running from the waste
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
What your quote should include
- How the colour is matched
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- If travel is included in the price
- How your room will be protected
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Leaking waste fittings
- Multiple cracks across the tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
