Shower tray repair in Bassenthwaite, done in place
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. If you are dealing with chips caused during fitting and chipped corners or rims, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

FAQs for Bassenthwaite
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
Do you work in Bassenthwaite?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Bassenthwaite from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
When can I use the shower again?
Typically the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.
Do you cover the entire of Cumbria?
The whole UK, including all of Cumbria. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the entire shower tray
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Bassenthwaite, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- 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.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, tidy-up included.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know about parking or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

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.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
