What affects the price in Bonnington
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray normally means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Bonnington
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Chips caused during fitting
- Movement when you stand on it
- A cracked shower tray
Questions to ask before booking
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
