Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A photo taken from further back

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Get a quote

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

What we are called out for in Blue Anchor

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, usually along the edges or by the waste.

Common reasons people in Blue Anchor contact us include:

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Chipped corners or rims

What your quote should include

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How changes to the job are handled

10 questions to ask before you book

Your questions about shower tray repair in Blue Anchor

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

Do you cover the entire of Somerset?

The whole UK, including all of Somerset. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Somerset.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
