How the visit works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Advice
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
We do not 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.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Common problems we fix in Bankside
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Chips caused during fitting
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Scuffs and light scratches
- A crack across the base
What your quote should include
- What preparation is included
- What happens if they find more damage
- How to look after the finish
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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, and the work is guaranteed.

Landlord and trade work in Bankside
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Greater London and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bankside as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Should you replace it?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.

FAQs for Bankside
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
What happens after I send pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.
