What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Repair or replace in Broad Street?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Broad Street. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
