Repairing versus replacing in Belmont
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Details of any past repairs
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, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Belmont
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Belmont?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can price the job without visiting.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Check the seal every few months
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
