Do you need shower tray repair in Bowthorpe?
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Scratches in the surface
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A cracked shower tray
- A tray that flexes

Bowthorpe: your questions answered
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
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.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price

What a repair cannot fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Report any creaking or movement early
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
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.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
