Repairing versus replacing in Boscean
Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Shower tray repair at your home in Boscean
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. If you’re dealing with chips on the edges and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Boscean and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What your shower tray is made of matters
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-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Report any creaking or movement early
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Questions from Boscean
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
If you are in Boscean and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
What a repair cannot fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Trays cracked in several places
- Leaking waste fittings
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair

What else we do in Boscean
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
