Burrells questions
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
About our shower tray repair in Burrells
We repair a lot of shower trays. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. Common call-outs are for movement when you stand on it and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, in acrylic, stone resin and cast iron.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the day after.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Open a window if you can

Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in Burrells
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The material
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Burrells. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chips on the edges
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A cracked shower tray
- Staining and dullness across the tray
What to look for in a quote
- How soon you can use it again
- How to care for the finish
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What preparation is included
