Should you replace it?
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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Bracon Ash. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Questions from Bracon Ash
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Usually, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
