- Staining and dullness across the tray
- A cracked shower tray

- Chipped corners or rims
What your quote should include
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
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.
Landlord and trade work in Box Hill
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Box Hill use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Common questions in Box Hill
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Do you work in Box Hill?
We do. Technicians travel to Box Hill from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What else we do in Box Hill
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
