Repairing versus replacing in Bonning Gate
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. The room is left tidy.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Bonning Gate
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Bonning Gate. The price comes down to:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
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.
How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.
