Your questions about shower tray repair in Bogside
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Bogside?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Store bottles off the tray
- Report any creaking or movement early
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
What a repair can’t fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
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.
Repair or replace in Bogside?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What we’re called out for in Bogside
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Chips on the edges
- A cracked shower tray
Before booking anyone
- Aftercare advice
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
What affects the price in Bogside
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Bogside. What changes the price is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A photo taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
What your shower tray is made of matters
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 we match the gloss when we repair them.
