Should you replace it?
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. 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- We leave the room as we found it
- Everything repaired in place

For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Greater London and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
When to call us in Bishopsgate
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Scuffs and light scratches
- A cracked shower tray
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
What your quote should include
- How to care for the finish
- How your room will be protected
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Use the extractor fan
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Your questions about shower tray repair in Bishopsgate
Do you cover the entire of Greater London?
The whole UK, including all of Greater London. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Bishopsgate, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
